[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If what you are saying PP, is that it is like Churchill or comparable, but without the academic pressure, then I will hope to send my kid there.[/quote]

No Im saying Churchill is a much better school.  It sends its graduates to more impressive universities.  It has a more diverse class and class offering and values things other than did you go to France over the summer.  It values things other than if you donated enough money.  Have name brand clothes.  It actually does things based on merit.  Doesnt give favoritism to kids who are children of big donors or athletes recruited for a season or two.

Bullis is gaudy and engenders so much disdain because it puts itself under the veil of a caring community.  Caring for athletes, legacy children of the wealthy and perpetuating privilege.  Boarman could dress is down a little... thing the guy thinks enough of himself?[/quote]

See... like this person... isn't even in touch enough with Bullis to realize that Boarman isn't the head of school anymore... obviously you are not affiliated with the school, so why post here?  It's this kind of strange, negative yet disassociated posting that seems to happen only to Bullis on this board... I really don't know where it comes from, but it's bizarre.    I'm so glad we don't take DCUM seriously enough to think this was the real Bullis... our middle schooler started this year and, despite masks, despite distancing, absolutely LOVES it.  We love it.   We came from another well known private to take advantage of all the great STEM offerings. 
Head of school, fantastic!  Teachers, caring and fantastic!  Facilities, blown away.  Sports, we aren't the sportiest, but great opportunities for keeping kids active.  Fellow students, sweet, down to earth, a little nerdy.  :)  Fellow parents that I've met... relaxed, friendly, not showy people.  Much much less concerned about status and the country club s

cene than our previous private.  Literally the school doesn't live up to its reputation here in any way.  Works for us! [/quote]

Agree with all of above- my child started last year and I have been extemely impressed. [/quote]
