[quote=Anonymous]I’ll address those comments one at a time. Daughter and other relatives recently graduated (all but one started in LS). Competitive socially and academically: Yes. It is a very good school in the DC area, so of course it is competitive academically. But that is at the top of the class. If you are taking less rigorous schedule, it is not crazy competitive. Socially, I observed quite a few big personalities and it was competitive. Inflexible admin: Not that I observed Athletes privilege: Well, yes, in lacrosse. Donors’ children favored: Not that we observed Not LGBTQ inclusive: Not true, but that is based on limited sample size. Of course, I am sure you would find more inclusivity at some of the non-Catholic schools. High teacher turnover: Not in our experience, although there were a lot of older teachers retiring. Lack of services for children with disabilities: no information Internationally diverse and transient: school seemed fairly diverse internationally. Not as many AA students as Bullis, but some. Did not find it transient. Pristine campus: With the new building, the campus is much better. It is a very good school but can be rough socially for certain girls. [/quote]
