sounds like too much testosterone.

Bullis has been coed since the 1980s. Just as easy to type, but less obnoxious than the last two posts.

Here's the email begging for applicants - DIRECT from Bullis. Factual, of course. Will it be deleted? If so, why? Doesn't make for a very honest account of the school on what's generally a good site for advice...

Dear Families,

Could the tired, happy child at your dinner table each night benefit from a year-round Bullis education? As your children try new things, learn, grow, and make friends this summer, we are delighted to be spending time with them through Bullis Summer Programs.

If you think Bullis might make a good academic home for your child, we’d love to talk it over with you. We serve girls and boys from Kindergarten through high school, and we spend every day creating a challenging, caring school community for students. We will accept late applications for review at select grade levels where space is available for the 2018-2019 school year. Contact us at [e-mail] or 301-983-5724.

Our admission office is always available. Our parent ambassadors are always eager to share about their Bullis experience. And we would be delighted give you a tour or discuss how Bullis could offer your child opportunities to grow, learn and make friends year-round.

We invite you to stop by the admission office, email us at [e-mail], or call 301-983-5724. We look forward to sharing our ideas about how to provide your child with the best possible education and opportunities at Bullis.

Sincerely,

The Bullis Admissions Team

Can you imagine Prep, Landon or StA being desperate enough to have to resort to sending out letters soliciting applications? How about Gonzaga, Holton, Stone Ridge or NCS? Those schools' reputations sell themselves. All of them have far more applicants than spots open. What's next for Bullis? Putting an add on Craig's list? Don't try to defend this as 'good marketing'. This reeks of desperation. What kind of admission standards can they possibly have? Giving athletes full rides and then opening the door to anybody else who can pay in full. When that fails, cut teacher salaries.

Unless you are making a 24 month pitstop to play lax, just send your kids to Churchill or Whitman already and be done with it. You'll get a much better education from a far more reputable public school that you don't pay for.

Churchill and Whitman aren’t home schools for ever student at Bullis. Stop making this idiotic statement.

This place is an anonymous support group for people who've developed a complex losing to a co-ed school, Bullis. Bullis feeds off your hate. Always has. And laughs after wins. Figure it out.

Are you a student or a parent? I’m honestly not sure which reflects more poorly on the school community, but I am curious.

Definitely the parents but they can’t help but rub off on the kids.

Why in your little mind does this reflect poorly? I'm curious.

Um, because it suggests that Bullis has not prepared you well for the real world that exists beyond high school athletics.

Starting a sentence with um. Very well prepared.

I concede to this gentleman and his mastery of the art of rhetoric. Please disregard all concerns about the toxic athletes-over-academics or aesthetics-over-substance culture that anyone may have noted about Bullis.
