i thought we were ranking the schools overall - not based on what we are/were/would be looking for.


Exactly. Nothing else considered. If that’s the case, this list is all around garbage. If we are going purely academics and overall:

NPS
St Pats

Now do what you choose with the rest. LOL


I agree!

I look at this list and think: Gucci or Prada? Lexus or BMW?
It depends. There's no right answer.

Put it like this. I had experience with all the privates in DC in some capacity. Sheridan is not about NPS!

+1 I’d like to know what criteria people are using to concoct these rankings. What metrics are being used? Is there test data available if it’s being based solely on academics? Otherwise this is purely subjective. How are PK-6 and PK- 8 grade schools being compared? They’re all great schools in different ways.

Don’t get why people are ranking WES higher than Sheridan - that part I agree with. But NPS and st Patrick’s are stronger academically than Sheridan -


No they're not and that's by a long shot. Sheridan is the best of the lot academically.

It is for sure much better. Sheridan kids don't tend to or want to go to Cathedral schools, but they have stronger enrollment at Sidwell, Maret and GDS than any other school on this list.

I feel similarly but would rank

Lowell
Sheridan
(Both great schools that do PK-8 extremely well, I give Lowell the edge for middle school though)

Norwood
NPS
St. Pats
WES

Sheridan is below all besides WES and Lowell, maybe Norwood too.

No... that’s why I was asking because I didn’t understand and misunderstood their reply. I agree with that poster. But uh, be quiet? It was a question.
