[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is very strong academically, and a nationally ranked athlete in a sport that Potomac doesn't offer. How does Potomac tend to view excellent students who are serious athletes, but aren't going to help them win any banners? [/quote] I was an earlier poster and Potomac parent. I think if you speak to it in the interview and the essays, it can only help. It is not only about winning banners, it is also about having a student body that is academically capable and has a diversity of interests. [/quote] I am also an earlier poster and Potomac parent and I agree with this assessment. Although you shouldn't just wait to mention it in an essay. Let the admissions folks know now. It will definetly make your kid stand out from the pack and help with admissions. Its not just about "winning banners" at all.[/quote]
