[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, the boys basketball team won the PVAC and the girls made it to the finals.  My DD is thriving at the Upper School.  ADHD with some quirkiness that made public a nightmare.  McLean School has been truly transformational for her and is great for bright kids with mild learning differences.  Lots of supportive teachers and counselors.  Even the cool kids are accepting of kids with differences.[/quote]

The PVAC teams would lose to many public MS teams.[/quote]
Sandy Spring Friends, Burke, Field, McLean - all PVAC schools. If you want a school for sports, none of those will be a top choice for you. But if you have a smart kid with some specific learning or social needs, any of them might be a good fit. Tbh, few kids are such athletic stars that you should choose a school purely on that basis.

Who said that is the sole or primary factor?  We want a great experience for our kid, and he is a good athlete.  Therefore, we never considered a PVAC school because the athletics at those schools are putrid.  Perfectly fine for many kids, but not those who value athletics as a component of their education.[/quote]

You.are.insufferable.  And hysterical![/quote]
