[quote=Anonymous]I think you'd have to take a tour with your kids. I would definitely investigate it. Several years ago a child who got the highest possible score on the SAT was from Banneker (I think it's 2400?). She got her pick of scholarships. And when GW does that scholarship thing where they go to the school and hand out full rides to several top DC students-- last year they went to Banneker and gave out a scholarship. I think the boy already had other offers-- he was quite sweet about it but did not commit to GW on camera. The school is also small, which means teachers know the kids well (~500 students?), and I don't believe there are a lot of extramurals like varsity sports, which means the school focuses with single-mindedness on ONE THING -- academics. I imagine they might have chess club, debate team, Mathaletes and It's Academic teams, etc. :-) [/quote]
