[quote=Anonymous]We will be moving to DC the summer before my DD enters 5th grade. Not this upcoming summer. We would consider Catholic parish schools through 8th grade and then an all-girls high school, or any combo of public/parish school to wait for an entry grade at the right all-girls school. I was intrigued by the comment in the St. Anselms thread about how its more low-key attitude toward sports accommodates boys who do non-school extracurriculars. My daughter is a gymnast, for now, and trains a lot. I’d love to send her to a school where not being seriously involved in an school-based arts extracurricular or on a team like field hockey or lacrosse won’t make her socially isolated and/or wouldn’t be accommodated by the school. Or, if she decides to stop gymnastics, I’d like her be able to find a school sport that she would enjoy that is friendly to beginners but at a school that takes it seriously. She has excellent grades and testing and we would not apply for FA.[/quote]
