[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where are you living? These schools are not close to each other. Also, schools like Bryn Mawr are not as conservative as they used to be. They might be more "conservative" in relation to Sidwell, but not by much.[/quote]

LOL, my daughter attends Bryn Mawr and is about as liberal as you can get.  Traditional in educational style, but not in politics.  It's also the most  intellectually rigorous school in the Baltimore area.   Son is at Gilman, which is more conservative, but still left of center, especially with respect to inclusion and diversity.[/quote]

McDonogh and Gilman are the most academic rigorous in the area, and one accepts girls  : )  Bryn Mawr is surfing on an imagined superiority that disappeared when most institutions desegregated the genders. If Gilman accepted girls, I would have considered it for my daughter.  Bryn Mawr is falling apart - literally, financially, socially, and academically.     [/quote]

McDonough is middle of the road for academic rigor but the sports are top notch and it does have the advantage of being coed.

BM is thriving, has waitlists for every grade this year.  Also, just opened a brand new student center/cafeteria this year.  It was the top choice of girls from Calvert last year, enrolling more than any other upper school.[/quote]
