[quote=Anonymous]You need to visit the schools and talk to admissions. It will become very clear why there is a price difference between Bullis and O’Connell (or independents and Diocesan schools). The facilities are very different. I wasn’t impressed with the facilities at Burke, but I think the class sizes are quite a bit smaller. I also believe that O’Connell (and other Diocesan schools) are less selective than the independents. But it sounds like O’Connell could be a good fit for your sporty, average student. I believe a few of their sports are competitive, so if playing on the school teams is important, you need to figure out if your kid will be good enough to make the teams. I get the impression that Field and Burke aren’t strong in any sports, so again, if that is important, you may want to cross those off your list.[/quote]
