Bullis Admissions Director

The well-respected diversity director left mid-year. We have been told that teachers are not crazy about the HOS. There have definitely been great strides made toward becoming a stronger school. But re-hiring the previous Admissions Director is not one of them.

This is an understatement.

Boosters probably help the program.

Head was all about sports and they gave a lot of money to PG County kids who ran track.

"PG County kids”?

Previous head was from PG county and recruited kids from there and gave a lot of money if they played football or ran track.

BS. You are being racist. You don't know anyone's financial status. My sister lives in PG, has a track kid at Bullis, and is full pay. Just. Stop!

Of course! And it is a fact that previous Head did bring a lot of PG kids to Bullis who otherwise wouldn’t have chosen the school without significant financial aid. He had strong ties to the area and grew the track program primarily with students from PG.

Anyone know of any child admitted to Bullis as a rolling admission, after their annual March decision deadline? Thanks

Didn’t the previous AD leave just last year??
