[quote=Anonymous]But nothing is factually untrue about the prior post.  Number of National merit semifinalists -- verifiable.  Big international program bringing in the $$$$ -- fact.  Lots of financial aid $$ going to the football team -- fact.  Bullis financial model very dependent on tuition -- fact.

That doesn't mean Bullis isn't a great destination for current students/families.  But to try and argue that it's in the first rank of academic reputation at this point just does not fit with the reality.  [/quote]

Bullis does not have a BIG international program but it does have a program (30 students).  I can't tell you how much each international student pays but that is not the Bullis cash cow.  Bullis has grown from a school of 500 students to a school of 850 students in 6 years.  350 x  40,000 that is money that gets things done.  $14,000,000 so to say that the international program is a cash cow is not accurate.

It is true that Bullis has not had a National Merit Semi-Finalist in the past few years is accurate, but I don't think that describes a schools level of achievement. Other local private schools have had 1 or 2 over the past few years.

Not sure what 'Lots of financial" going to the football team means, but that sports program does not even receive the most financial aid at the school.  FA is based on need.[/quote]
