[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you looked at St. Timothy's?[/quote]

It's never been known for rigorous academics. Very few people in Baltimore look at St. Timothy's or even consider it when looking at other schools. [/quote]

This is pretty much wrong. We have one at St Timothy’s now. The diploma IB curriculum, which the top students slot into, is very rigorous and highly valued in college admissions. This year’s graduation class includes girls headed to Princeton, MIT, Duke, etc.

It is making a stronger push for local students so aid packages are competitive.

As an IB school with boarders, it draws students from around the world. My DD has friends from China, India, Spain and Peru. There is a girl from Afghanistan and one from Ukraine now. It is the most racially and ethnically diverse school in the Baltimore area.

It is small, about 50 per class, which some won’t like. Also, since every student takes part in a sport/activity after school every trimester, doing out-of-school club sports is tricky. But I know we have a student in JHU Peabody chorus so it can be done.

If local parents/girls aren’t at least looking at St. Tim’s, that’s their loss.
