[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So much incorrect info on this thread.  Potomac is definitely the equal of the top Washington privates.  (Sidwell, STA/NCS, etc...).  I have kids at both the "big 3" and at Potomac and the work loads, rigor, expectations, course offerings and college admissions are very similar.  The Big 3 has more snob appeal for a certain kind of new Washingtonian but there has always been a contingent of Washingtonians who send kids to Potomac, especially daughters.  None of the other NOVA private schools are nearly as selective nor rigorous.  And most DC families that send kids to Potomac never even consider any other VA private day schools.  Similarly, Holton is the one Maryland private that is the academic equal of the top DC schools and competes on equal footing with those schools both for admissions and for college acceptances.  Anyone who says differently either has a bone to pick or doesn't have the facts.[/quote]

This is the last school I would send my daughter to.  Rough experience for mine.  Girls in her class were brutal to many in the grade.  No consequences for repeated bad behavior at that school.[/quote]

Holton or Potomac?[/quote]
