[quote=Anonymous]It's interesting that you consider The Potomac School a pressure cooker school. An educational consultant recommended it to us as a school that was less high pressure than Sidwell, the Cathedral Schools, GDS, and Maret. The LS, at least, is less high pressure, offers more recess and requires less homework, etc. than other schools my kids have attended. Maybe it has changed in the last few years? There are some very bright students at Maret, but I don't think Maret is as intense as Sidwell, the Cathedral schools, or even GDS. They are known for doing a great job of supporting the more academically challenged kids through the high school years, while other schools tend to counsel them out after 8th grade. St. Andrew's is another school that seems more supportive than high pressure. Good luck![/quote]
