[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The schools tuition has jumped significantly under the current headmaster. They have recently completed several capital improvements  and investments into their facilities. The campus looks phenomenal though! [/quote]

The academic reputation hasn't gotten stronger, though.  But maybe with fancy enough buildings they will get stronger students as time goes on.  They have really used foreign students as cash cows -- they charge foreign students double the tuition, stash them with local families for a small stipend, and pocket a lot of money.  The money has gone to facilities and financial aid for athletes.  The football coach controls about three-quarters of a million in aid funds that he can use for the football team.  [/quote

Bullis has a strong academic program.  In fact it is the only school in history to have 2 Jefferson Scholars from the same high school.  Bullis is not the same school it was in the 1970's. 
 Bullis has started an international program for students and has around 30 international students, Bullis does not have boarding so Bullis families take in students and are paid a stipend to offset costs.  This is not a cash cow.  Collecting 40K per student is the cash cow and Bullis has had a significant increase in enrollment over the past 10 years.  This has aided in a upgrade of numerous facilities on campus and with the addition of the new building Bullis may increase enrollment even more over the next 5 years.  [/quote]
