[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  We’re definitely hoping for something smaller than Alexandria City, but recognize that might be our only option.  (I don’t think boarding is right for us.). Any advice as to whether it might be worth applying to either St Stephen’s or Ireton would be much appreciated!  (Sounds like maybe the former is not worth it.)[/quote]

The other diocesan schools are Bishop O’Connell in Arlington and St John Paul the Great in Dumfries.  O’Connell is a bit bigger than Ireton and might have more room for your grades.  JPG is a bit of a commute, but it’s a newer school and probably has room in the class.  Really nice kids there.

I don’t know if Gonzaga takes transfers in the upper grades.  That’s a boys school in DC.  St John’s is another one to look at.  [/quote]

Gonzaga takes transfers if they have space. The current 9th grade class (class of 2029) is oversubscribed and the largest class they’ve ever had so odds are for that grade there won’t be room next year. Can’t speak for other grades. [/quote]
