[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I couldn't disagree more with some of these assessments. I've had (and still have) kids at SBS. We have been very happy there and we do not live in Woodmoor.

Class sizes are small. The community is warm and welcoming. There is a strong emphasis on service and charitable giving. Music an theater are valued. Most classes have good teachers (there have been a few teachers in and out in the last few years on long term absences and the sub situation hasn't been great).  Our very gifted child and our mildly LD child have both been happy there. 
I work outside the house.  I'd say more than half of the mothers in all the classes we have been in have jobs outside the home.

The church is very conservative but most school families actively disagree with the monsignor's behavior. His attitude doesn't carry over to the school.  There is one same sex family right now and they are popular and well liked.  I don't think there are any practicing jewish kids in the school right now, but there's a jewish teacher in the middle school. [/quote]

To address the other question from the OP: almost all kinds go on the Catholic high schools, a minority go to Blair or other public options. [/quote]
