Get a grip - Virtually every school in the area has some version of that.

Yes, not much has been shared about Flint Hill. After a few post, they were like “thanks that’s enough”. We aren’t posting anymore.

I don’t like the fact that they shut down a platform where issues could be discussed on a page which was created after other schools were using “Black at” pages in solidarity to talk about these things. Well we never saw any “Black at” and there was a lot of damage control with what was allowed.

This was a form of soft shoeing.

I don’t think the schools themselves were running any of these pages. I’m not associated with FH but I wouldn’t blame the school for shutting down the posts.

My child has always been great academically. I know Potomac is a great school, but I chose Flint Hill because it's closer from our house.
So far, I love many things about Flint Hill. So, I hope people stop assuming kids are going to FH because they couldn't get into Potomac, since it's not true. We didn't even apply to Potomac or any other school for that matter.

The fact is most families choose FH for convenience. The better schools are too far of a commute for most Virginia families.

Both of my next door neighbor's kids went to Ivies - Princeton and Harvard. The son just finished medical school at Stanford. Both came out of the Arlington public school system.

Well they are both non-secular k-12’s in the same area. I don’t have kids at either, but I’d think they are similar.

There are people on this board who act like one is dramatically better than the other, but in the real world they are often compared.

I’ll bet most of the Virginia kids that look at Potomac, also look at Flint Hill, and vice versa.
