[quote=Anonymous] DS got in at a Big 5 but his heart was set on Bullis from the first time we toured. DS is a bright kid, and strong athlete but he does have some anxiety and we worry he won't do well at a pressure cooker type of environment. He is very hardworking and intrinsically motivated. We loved the fact that Bullis can achieve amazing college placement with subjecting the kids to too much pressure. We were very impressed by their Signature programs in STEM, Visual Arts and Entrepreneurship in high school. We also loved the campus (impressive facilities) and the whole vibe. DS had a great time when he shadowed and already made a couple of friends who he keeps in touch with. Some of our friends are telling us we are crazy to give up a much more prestigious school for Bullis, but in my heart I feel we are making the right choice. Is this something we'll regret in the future? PS: Commute isn't an issue Thanks in advance[/quote]
