[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I posted several times earlier. I'm not a TJ supporter or parent. We live in Maryland and couldn't have TJ as an option. I went to Andover a long time ago, have a son in another NE prep and another son considering high schools now. I don't aim to make a competition of it, but even the most ardent GDS supporter should be humbled to read that TJ record. For a public magnet school, it is incredible. Richard Montgomery on the Maryland side is also terrific.

I got on this board to try and learn more about the local strong preps. Some of what I read here is very misleading and is also off-putting. GDS is a good school, but frankly I don't put it above STA or Sidwell. I see those as more of a homogenous group separated by the cultures of the schools. [/quote]
I find your repeated comments odd, because you admittedly have no directly experience with TJ or GDS or any other local high school, and yet you're supremely confident sitting in judgment of them all.  You also keep citing your Andover connection as if it provides you with some sort of magical power to rank high schools ... or perhaps you're just name-dropping.

FWIW, I have no connection whatsoever to GDS, to TJ, or to Andover.  I'm sure you're much smarter than I am, but I don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.[/quote]
