What if your local public sucks. And you don’t have the money for prep or sidwell?[/quote]
Any MCPS HS is better. [/quote]

If you feel that way, then just stay and enjoy your school, including the:

-locked bathrooms
-frequent fights
-overcrowded class sizes
-mold infested portable classrooms
-lockdowns, bomb scares, gun scares
-frequent standardized testing (waste of time)
-gender dysphoria in a third of the population
-severe grade inflation
-over exposure to AP classes and consequent student burnout (for motivated students)
-lack of writing instruction/little to no feedback on submitted papers and essays
-over exposure to unmotivated students and risk of your student becoming one

I could go on.[/quote]

I assume the W public schools don’t have these problems, except overcrowding.[/quote]

Colleague's DC both attended Wooton. He reported the locked bathrooms, fights, standardized tests, promotion of gender dysphoria, but not most of the others.

His kids experience also was that their school had little grade inflation (other than the weighting for AP) in the AP classes, a lot of Asian kids who were competing aggressively on academics, and that lots of kids were getting outside school math supplements. [/quote]
