[quote=Anonymous]    St. Andrew's is a much younger school than these others so of course it has s few alumni and less entrenched traditions.   But by design it embraces children who show a lot of potential in both the same way that shools like Landon or Holton would, but also in a broader way enabling them to admit students that these other schools would not.  So of course there are different levels of academc intensity in the school that fit different kids -- the fact that one school has a selection process that excludes groups of children does not make it "better" -- only different.  One thing I love about St. Andrew's is its twin emphasis on all students striving to be the best they can be in competition with themselves, more than with other, and teaching all kids regardless of ability that .  Not all juniors take the type of course mentioned above at Landon, but the standard english class sometimes requiring up to 50 pages per night kids work and think and the AP  English course is of reading.
