[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I think that is why you hear folks say "Cathedral Schools," not "Cathedral School."[/quote] The usage isn't all that common outside of this board, which was sort of the point. In my 40+ years here, Cathedral has always meant NCS only. That said, I recognize that not everyone has been in DC as long as I have. [/quote] The "Cathedral schools" is, in fact, common outside of this board. It's used by many in our community. The schools don't just share the close, they are also all legal subsidiaries of the Protestant Episcopal Cathedral Foundation. So the phrase is short-hand for all 3 educational instiutions under that umbrella. That said, if you say only "Cathedral" and not "Cathedral schools," then you are in fact refering to NCS alone.
