[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We left the school, it was an awful experience for our family. Other students leave quietly because families who leave are aggressively 'iced' out and quickly forgotten. No one follows up on why someone left. Don't be fooled by their waitlist, they simply don't have the faculty nor footprint to facilitate a larger student body. Most kids are struggling to do math/reading/writing that they will need for college entrance exams. Students are awarded based on school spirit or trying hard instead of actual results. Most of the students there will aspire to go to a school where liberal arts and the faith are central. Please look for and request their matriculation data and their average exam scores. Their SAT equivalents are national average and at D.C. SATs (1090) and at Maryland SATs (1008). Ask yourself if you want to pay 15k+ for 'friends' or 'religious formation' or 'safe environment'. The friends there are only friends if you 100% support their school and it is very difficult on you to disagree. The religious formation there is questionable because the push political agendas especially during the Humanities Seminar. The safe environment is still D.C., there are lock downs ocassionally in the school due to nearby shootings.[/quote] Above post was also used verbatim in a 7/22 post about St Anselm's Abbey School. Likely someone with an agenda re. both schools. Take it with a grain of salt![/quote]
