So not true. And this is a thread about Bullis.

St. Andrews and Bullis have are on the same academic level. They can accommodate kids with learning disabilities as these schools invest in having more academic resources available.

As someone who watched a Bullis parent crap all over Langley HS, a distinguished public her daughter attended one year, for at least the next four years, I am loving this thread. We need to keep it alive at least until 2021.

No offense intended but I always wonder why people would rather put their children in a third rate private rather than a first rate public.....seems illogical.

I find it to be in extraordinary poor taste to take a jab at kids who may have learning disabilities. Some who have weaknesses & challenges are exceptional in other ways. Einstein was dyslexic. So was Steve Jobs, who was also ADHD and put into a trade high school in 10th grade. Now neither guy made all IAC in lacrosse, so all things to all people doesn't seem to be a market.

St. Andrews is a school that can challenge the very top students and is also a great environment for kids who require a different experience. Nothing wrong with that.

St Andrews is far superior academically to Bullis.

How would you know that?
How did you get to that conclusion ?
SAT scores? College acceptance or just your own opinion?

I think someone is missing the irony here.

There is only 1 teacher that has taught at Bullis and St Andrew's. That teacher is still at Bullis and that teacher's kids go or went to Bullis. One graduated from an Ivy League school and the other is still at Bullis.
