[quote=Anonymous]We did a lot of research last fall for our son who'll be applying for 9th grade this fall. We looked at Landon, St. Alban's, Prep, and Maret (we live in Woodley Park, so we felt obligated to look at Maret -- although ultimately, we want single sex. Anyway, despite the fact that it is further from home and that we're not Catholic, we were most taken with Prep. Our son is an athlete (football and baseball), and he is also a nearly straight-A student at a coed k-8. He really excels in mathematics and writing. We love the balance (e.g., "whole man") that Prep emphasizes and we were of course blown away by the facilities. We've also been impressed with the Prep alumi whom we've associated with -- and see the balance in them. Of course, we still need to get through the application process, and we will be applying to St. Alban's and Landon -- both great schools too. Crossing our fingers he'll get in somewhere.[/quote]
