[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are very different schools. Either would be good for a “bright” boy, so you’re going to have to figure out the best fit on your own. As a pp said, start with co-ed vs single-sex, it’s a blatant differentiator. [/quote]

Can we once and for all put a rest to the redundant term “very different,” especially when describing two $50,000 a year private schools located a mile apart in leafy NW DC?

They are not “very different.”  They may be somewhat different, but they are more alike than people who want to sing the praises of the plethora of schools in this area want to concede. OP don’t be an idiot. They are both full of “bright boys,” another meaningless term. [/quote]

They ARE very different if you have boy who is not interested in single sex environment, who does not want to have a heavy sports requirement, and who doesn't want to be in a culture where sports participation plays a large role in social scene.

Obviously, they are both great academically.  I'd say that college counseling is much better at STA.[/quote]
