[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP, I have toured these schools. Here are my 2 cents

Harford Day looks good on paper but is thoroughly unimpressive. I have never met a family who has been through the school who was glad they spent the money on it.

John Carroll is about as bad as it gets in terms of hick trash with a little money. Their college matriculation is so unimpressive I can't imagine the local publics are worse.

Tome is in the middle of the boonies. It has trash college admissions, although that might be the parents' fault. It is a good school. Better in person than on paper. Frankly I don't understand why the kids don't go on to better things. I felt like I was missing something with them.

Really no great option, but I will say parents of Tome absolutely love it, and it's the only one on this list that comes with a ton of parent satisfaction. So I dunno. Harford County isn't great for good options.[/quote]

OP here, are you me??? I toured Harford Day and thought it was dreadful. Tome blew us away. But then when you think about it more, it's like, gee, Tome sends their students to like College Park at best, what's up with that.

Tome is convenient and it seems awesome, but there's no arguing with poor college matriculation lists. I am aware of the chasm between Tome vs Bryn Mawr but I don't know about daily commutes into the city, or using a bus. Maybe when my kids aren't young. [/quote]
