[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a scientist myself, I would say the DC private school universe does not have a lot of strength in science, as compared to the humanities. Perhaps most of the parents are lawyers, politicos, journalists (at least that is my experience) and they pass on those genes/environment to their kids. Most of the engineers/scientists I work with send their kids tp public (in part because don't make enough money for private) and focus on TJ in Virginia or Blair magnet in Montgomery county. I hear good things about science at Holton but that won't help a boy. GDS has some great science teachers and a pretty rich science curriculum, including some research electives, and a strong math team and math program at least compared to the other privates, so would encourage you to look there.
