[quote=Anonymous]PP clearly doesn't have kids at Bullis. We have one DC at Bullis in the Upper School and one who recently graduated. Bullis is fantastic for all types of learners, including academic high flyers. My children are very different from each other. One is very academically driven and wound up at an Ivy. My other child is artistically focused and has incredible opportunities to pursue their passion and develop a portfolio for college admissions. The teachers make sure that ALL kids are appropriately challenged. The school is focused on kids being joyful, which, given what's is happening with teenagers all around us, is crucial. That said, focusing on happy kids and a vibrant campus life does not mean that kids aren't very bright or intellectually challenged. There are signature programs in arts, entrepreneurship, STEM, and humanities for kids who really want to do a deep dive into certain subjects. The list of college matriculations from past years speaks for itself -- there's a range of schools represented, including pretty much every Ivy, as well as more niche schools. 
OP, as other posters have said, take a look for yourself. Ask the admissions office to connect you with parents or, better yet, if you can find Bullis parents through friends or friends of friends, you might feel more comfortable that the families you're speaking to haven't been cherry-picked. I'm confident you'll hear very positive feedback from parents about their children's academic experience at Bullis.
Good luck! [/quote]
