[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Are most of the girls at Holy Child wealthy[/b]?  I attended one or to events and the moms gave off that vibe.  We are not wealthy, (two government employees) so asking.[/quote]
Extremely wealthy[/quote]

This is why is it is perceived as more "prestigious".  It costs more and caters to a wealthy crowd.  Of course the college matriculations are fine; the kids come from wealthy families.  Those kids could get into good colleges regardless of the high school they attend.

[b]There is a definite bias against AHC [/b]compared to the more expensive schools on this board.  It's your garden-variety snobby behavior.

Kids should shadow at each school they apply to, go to open houses, attend events.  Get a feel for each school and see which community resonates with them.

I have not seen this.  AHC seems quite popular - more so than HC actually.[/quote]

Sorry, but this is 100% not try. Most DMV private school parents have never even heard of AHC.[/quote]

Funny, most haven't heard of Holy Child. Maybe just the Potomac, MD crowd.

AHC is better known than Holy Child overall. Where it ranks with the other DC area all-girls schools is up to debate.[/quote]

Agree with this. I had heard a lot about AHC. We stumbled upon HC but actually ended up liking it more than HC so that is where we applied. [/quote]
