| Many conservative, but not Opus Dei families. Consider Abalon if you want a bit more moderate school. |

Where are the VA shuttles. Also for the little kids-how is the bus ride with older kids. I worry about bullying with such age differences but would need bus service to make it work. How are the facilities? I am going to tour but would love a heads up. |

For super smart, St. Anselm's would be a better fit. Gonzaga and Prep are fine schools, but St. Anselm's would be a better fit if academic rigor was a major factor. The sports aren't anywhere close to Gonzaga or Prep, but a sport kid might find he's more the star, rather than just another sporty kid if he chose St. Anselm's. |
