[quote=Anonymous]Potomac is very rigorous. We have friends at STA and workload is similar. Our kid is tracked at Advanced (former AP) level track. Tons of homework, projects, teachers are very demanding. Currently working on finance project. Learning a ton. There are regular tracks as well that are less difficult. But academics are top notch and well above schools like Flint Hill, Bullis which are geared to athletic recruits. And even upper level classes there are easier and scaled upward as we know from our neighbors kids who go there. Can’t comment on social life at STA, but we know Bullis is all clique. Sports kids are a big group and then you have the Uber rich MD crowd kids. Potomac to a much lesser extent. School has good spirit with tons of after school events like dinners, basketball tourneys, coffee house. Kid had a good group of friends and many kids hang out in multiple groups. [/quote]
