[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]WES parent here.  Of course more WES graduates go to every public school combined than go to St. Albans each year.   What a silly comparison. The [b]same is true for every middle school[/b].

I don't know a single graduate who went to public school involuntarily this year.  The only kids who went public school had been planning to do so for years (including mine).     [/quote]

Um, not so not true.  The other schools mentioned rarely send any kids to public for middle school.  In fact its virtually unheard of for kids to go to publics for middle school from St Pats, NPS, Sheridan, etc...  In fact no more than 2 usually go to Pubic for high school any given year.

Just face facts, WES cannot and does not compete with these other schools. Its just not as good in attracting and producing top students. [/quote]

I'm confused. You say other schools rarely send any kids to public for middle school and that's it's virtually unheard of for kids to go to publics for middle school from St Pats, NPS, Sheridan, etc. Neither does WES.

I believe previous poster was discussing students going into high school, not middle school.[/quote]

I don't have a dog in this fight (I live in MoCo and never considered any of these schools seriously) but another OBVIOUS difference is that a greater number of WES students live in Bethesda, Chevy Chase and Potomac where they have high achieving public HS options.  [/quote]
