[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We (parents and DC) loved DC’s time at Congressional and DC was well prepared for HS, and Congressional is really hands-on in helping families with the HS application process (which is a lot! Not gonna lie. It’s intense.)

So I’m a big fan of the k-8 model because, like pp said, you don’t necessarily know at a young age what HS will be best, and while of course you can switch out of a k-12, most students won’t if it’s going ok, even if it’s not great. It’s much easier to just stay where you are, especially if things are fine socially—it’s hard to leave friends.

FWIW, DC is at SSSAS for HS, but friends in the same class at Congressional went on to Potomac and Flint Hill (as well as many other schools). Everybody I’ve heard from (several parents still keep in touch) is doing very well. [/quote]

Agree with this. Both of my kids enjoyed their time at congressional and placed on to (different) high schools that were excellent fits for each of them. For one, that was a 9-12 only school - which likely would not have been a consideration had they started at a K-12. [/quote]
