[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bullis parent here. We have been happy with both the MS and US program. I pretty good balance of arts, sports and academics. Though our child has not liked every teacher the overall experience has been outstanding. I will say the English and History teachers do assign a heavy load of homework throughout the year. We are happy with our decision to attend Bullis. [b]Yes we have met some families with extreme wealth, but if you go to a school with a $40k price tag of course you will find wealthy families.[/b] Everyone we have associated with has been kind and welcoming. Good luck to those awaiting to hear from admissions.[/quote] I posted above regarding what we found to be a rather garish emphasis on money at Bullis. While I would agree that there are wealthy families at every private school, we didn't see that same emphasis on flaunting wealth at the two other independent schools our kids have attended. [/quote] What kind of flaunting pp? Our experience at privates have included schools in Los Angeles where the wealth can be utterly extraordinary, but actually with zero flaunting, even from folks living in a $14 million house (and owning a few others). I want to know what flaunting goes on in the greater DC area, please.[/quote]
