[quote=Anonymous]There's a lot of overlap between the 2 schools in applications and even within families. Not sure you can go wrong here if your kids were accepted at both. Mine were, and we chose WIS for a variety of reasons. Both primary schools (as with most other private primary schools in DC) have their detractors. If language is the priority in the younger years, I'd go for WIS. Otherwise I think you'll find that the primary schools will look pretty similar. The WIS middle school is fantastic, and both high schools are excellent preparation for college. WIS will have had more experience with families re-entering after time abroad (you do need to reapply each time and for each child), and they also have preK3 for your youngest if needed. Overall parent populations at the 2 schools have a pretty different feel, if that matters to you. [/quote]
