[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn’t call MD a “very catholic school”. I know several families who send their boys there because they don’t want to deal with the crazy DEI / woke BS that is found in MCPS. I wouldn’t call these families even practicing Catholics - they show 2x a year. Most of these families don’t feel like dropping $45K to send their kids to STA or Landon or Bullis for lower school education and settle on MD which is more aligned with their budget. [/quote] Then why do 95% of grads go onto Catholic schools? [/quote] Because those are the only schools most of those kids can get into. [/quote] And because if you have been somewhere for 8 years, it’s a big move to deviate from the herd.[/quote] If by “herd” you mean the large group of Catholics who grew up in the area and who are belong to the same parishes, grew up in many of the same neighborhoods, went to Catholic grammar school and high school together, belong to the same clubs and may have family ties, I guess you are right. And I guess that would include parents that grew up in other areas but in similar environments and want that the same thing for their kids and themselves here in DC. There are very few of these. And historically this has included those that MD didn't recommend to the high schools they have the closest relationships with. [/quote]
