[quote=Anonymous]Burke was described to me as the private school for parents who hate private school. A lot of the kids went public through elementary and went private after looking at their public options. Burke parents tend to be over-represented as former PTA presidents, LSAT members and so on at their public schools. I know four Burke families who went to the same neighborhood elementary as my kids and among them they have three former LSAT members and one PTA president. Many of the Burke kids are IB for Hardy, a few even spent some time at Hardy and bailed out. A fun Burke fact: of the four feeder school reps on the last Hardy principal selection committee, two are now Burke parents. Burke's a good school. Undeniably, it's also $35K or so a year more expensive than Hardy.[/quote]
