[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Potomac does have a national reputation.[/quote]

It does?  Where is that information?[/quote]

Does 2 states plus the district equal national?[/quote]

No, but listed in top 20 for college prep schools in Forbes Magazine probably does.  [/quote]

If it was listed in such a Forbes link, give a link.  Otherwise, "search DCUM for links to articles that say Potomac is better than Sidwell/STA/NCS/GDS I promise you they are there" doesn't really cut it.  Potomac is strong, but the DC schools have an edge because they don't have to compete with, say, TJ, in attracting students.  And the National Merit Semifinalist numbers bear that out.[/quote]

Ok, I'll play along:

1. Potomac listed as one of top 5 schools in DC by Washingtonian - http://www.washingtonian.com/articles/work-education/a-private-school-for-every-student/

2. Potomac listed as #22 best school in the country by Worth Magazine - http://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/43718.page#295235

3. Potomac listed as #33 best school in the country by Best Schools - http://www.thebestschools.org/blog/2013/04/30/50-private-day-schools-united-states/

Not sure why you're out to get Potomac (maybe you work for a competiive school?), but clearly its one of the best schools in the area, and well-respected nationally.  That's not even a question.[/quote]

Ummm.  Ditto!   :lol: [/quote]
