[quote=Anonymous]RM does have IB, but the IB students are very segregated from the rest of the population. Unless your IB kid plays sports, they will only be with IB kids.

If you are in the "general population" at RM (AP, honors, on-level) it is a typical HS. I loved RM and was not an IB student. I played sports year round and had a fantastic high school experience. Yes, there are African Americans and Hispanics (gasp!) but it was a great school and had opportunities for everyone. I know several teachers there now and they all love it.

Wootton is also a great school but VERY competitive and stressful for the kids. The sports teams are good but what I love about WHS is that every kid finds their niche at the school. There are something like 150 clubs, plus sports teams, so there really is something for everyone. However, it is cut throat and there is more pressure there than at RM.

It really comes down to what your son/daughter is interested in and what academic path they would take. [/quote]
