[quote=Anonymous]Go visit the school and talk to parents and have your kid shadow for a visit, but otherwise be wary of believing what a windbag on DCUM says about St. Albans. Yeah they wear coats and ties--they dash around outside anyway and tumble around llike puppies at recess, regardless of the ratty blazer. Your "stuffy rectangular prism" is my kid's "cool it looks like Hogwarts" building. They are outside a lot. They do compete and most of them really like it! They also cooperate in team and academic settings. It's not perfect--as everywhere, some teachers are probably better than others or maybe gel more with one or another type learner--but it's a very friendly, active environment and the all-boys dynamic seems to work very well. Lots of good co-ed options in this area if that's the way you want to go, though, so don't stress out if you don't like it or feel it's right for your little guy.[/quote]
