[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your child will be fine. I always laugh about outsider’s view of Potomac being a sports school. Like most top independents in this area they don’t for sports and many of their programs are not very competitive overall. No serious athlete chooses Potomac if that’s all they care about. For this reason, many different types of kids do well there. I have two kids at Potomac since kindergarten. One is a sporty kid, one is not. They both found their people and thrive in different ways. Your kid will be fine. [/quote] I’m PP that said it’s painful to watch nonsporty boy try to find their place. Agree Potomac isn’t a powerhouse athletic school like some of those in the IAC or WCAC, but in our experience the social pecking order for boys is indeed tied to athletic prowess (and wealth).
