[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think they increasingly have students from places other than Alexandria. The faculty is excellent, and I think folks from other communities talk about the quality of instruction (at least that was true for us — people we knew talked about the teachers’ being very strong. So we looked there) [/quote]

Wrong. It is one of the most homogenous populations for a private school.  Super high population comes from Old Town or Belle Haven.  Most of the kids and parents have known each other and socialized for years.  If you are not one of them, you are pretty much ostracized.[/quote]

Nope.  Not even close but nice try.  [/quote]

Truth hurts.  No other IAC school draws primarily from such a small and homogenous area.  Kids who try to break in and aren't part of that group typically have bad experiences.  The school has little geographic, racial and economic diversity.[/quote]

When I car-pooled from Chevy Chase, there were two or three other kids in my grade from there, a couple from Spring Valley, one from Kalorama, another from Foxhall, etc. Most were students WERE Virginians, but we had a solid DC/CHCH contingent.[/quote]
