[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure that's true on a per capita basis since Landon invented reclassing in the IAC and Bullis and Episcopal allow upper school athlete transfers to reclass.   Some of the resident students from China at Prep have skipped a grade.   [/quote]

Pretty sure none of the exchange students are picking up a long stick or protecting the quarterback's blind side.  [/quote]

This is such a stupid counter argument.  Let's say there are 100 boarding students at Prep and none of them play sports (which is untrue).  So 25 kids per grade who aren't contributing to athletics at Prep.

At every IAC school, there are similarly at least 25 boys in every HS grade who aren't contributing meaningfully to a Varsity sport.

Nice try.[/quote]

I believe the point was to highlight the speciousness  PP's countering the reclass for sport with grade skipping exchange students.

Also, if we are going to talk about Prep, let’s not forget this little bit of zen: https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/local/1991/01/15/dismissal-upheld-in-prep-school-hazing-incident/524fa325-7171-41b4-8edc-1d5fa8706d9f/
