[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child is already very happy at another very well known school on this board... so I'm just trying to refresh my memory.

I understand that Sidwell's new (as of Fall 2009) Head of School tom Farquhar previously was the Head of School at Bullis. Now, I vaguely remember learning when I met NPS's  very impressive Head of School Jim Neill that he attended Bullis. Is this correct? If not, what other local school did Mr. Neill attend? The educational piece only information I can find on Mr. Neill's on the NPS website is that he went to Harvard. However, I am curious.

Thanks in advance!

If my memory is correct (and I"m not sure it is) then I find it impressive that the Bullis school would have such an impressive administrative team and alumni. Makes you think twice about the school.

And, honestly, I find it impressive on Bullis's part that their former head of school was chosen at Sidwell. Usually, when one of the leading schools in the area loses it's headmaster there is a nationwide search. Clearly Bullis must be doing something right... and I hope this continues with the new head.

Again, I have NOTHING to do with any of the schools mentioned above.

Yes,  Bullis is doing a lot that's right, and, as a Sidwell parent, I fervently hope that Tom Fahrquar will re-create that at SFS.  [/quote]
