[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Um, the Head of admission at StA likes to say "We are a single sex school on a co-ed campus"  [/quote]

Which is not at all the same thing as referring to STA as a coed school.

And this statement is correct, BTW.  They are single sex schools.  And they share a campus.[/quote]

Which is not to suggest that each school doesn't have it's own wonderful facilities -- they just all happen to be on the expansive grounds of the National Cathedral.  They don't have a golf course like prep, but the campuses aren't cramped like other DC schools.[/quote]

NCS and STA share the 57 acre Cathedral Close with other cathedral facilities, but the 57 acres far exceeds other schools in DC such as Sidwell (15 acres), Maret (?) and GDS (10 acres).  Georgetown Visitation is the only one close (45 acres).  Land cost is an issue for newer schools -- then there's Georgetown Prep with 90 acres right on the Metro that allowed them to work out a $888 million ground lease without giving up the golf course.[/quote]
