Bullis includes lunch


But Bullis total is $55,110 by 12th grade


The figures above were excluding fees. If you want to add them in for all of them, be my guest.


Many schools do not charge extra fees. It annoys me that Bullis does. They nickle and dime us on top of the high tuition.


Huh? They all have fees. SFS has a textbook fee, tech fee, yearbook fee. SSFS has an intersession fee, textbook fee, and athletic fees. SSSAS has a parent association fee, tech fee, book fee, and even a graduation fee!


Holton doesn't charge extra for most of the items you listed

Field ???


I was looking a few years ago and thought Burke was $40k back then. If so, that’s quite a price hike.


It’s same as all others. Most have had $5k increase in just one year.


Burke's HS tuition hasn't increased $5K total across the last 4-5 years, and certainly not in one year. (Was just below $42K in 2018/19 to $46K now) Recent increases have mostly been in the 2-3% range.

Gonzaga $28,240 (includes lunch)

St Anselms $35,000 (doesn’t include lunch)
SSFS $40,980 (includes lunch)
Georgetown Prep $42,190 (lunch)
Burke $45,996 (lunch?) This is 22-23 need new
Maret $46,230 (includes lunch)
Potomac $48,988 (includes lunch)
SSSAS $49,030 (lunch?)
St. Andrew's $49,680 (includes lunch)
Landon $50,409 (includes lunch)
GDS $51K (no lunch even for sale)
Holton $52,970
NCS $53,208 (includes lunch)
Field $54,335 (doesn’t include lunch)
Bullis $54,540 (includes lunch)
Sidwell $55,140 (includes lunch)
STA $55,468 (includes lunch)

To a PP. For me, this is helpful. Especially when assessing a school for longer period than just high school. Knowing this, I may take a look more at SSFS, Burke, or Maret closer than some of the $55k schools. Even if you’re talking about middle school and high school. $10k a year with modest 8% return will give you an extra $90k by high school graduation you could have vs paying extra tuition at Bullis.

I can see that. I stand corrected.

I was looking at it from the, well it’s about the same, might as well pay for the Big 3.

That’s what they want you to think. You are a frog in the water they are slowly bringing to the boil. They are hoping you won’t notice.

The other big fee items you have to consider are: text books, technology, athletics, test fees, and other ECs. Some schools charge for these, some don't. Most of those are things everyone has to pay, as opposed to lunch and transportation which some people need and others don't.

They’re happy for themselves, first and foremost. That’s why we do everything ourselves that we can to support them.

I can’t believe Gonzaga is so much less! We probably would’ve ended up at the same college if we had gone to Gonzaga and we would’ve saved all of that money. I hear the parent community is much nicer there as well.
