[quote=Anonymous]Don't ignore the diocesean high schools. Paul IV, Bisphop O'Connell and Ireton have top academics for top students. The schools are diverse in every sense of the word. Average class size is about 10 less than our highly ranked public. The schools also boast top ranked basketball programs (PVI boys is ranked #1 overall in the DC area, O'Connell is usually ranked top 20 and O'Connell girls softball has won VA state championships forever). Don't know about Ivy-level placement but I often hear parents say that they feel their kids get a bit of a college admissions break because they aren't competing against 500 others from the same high school for the same spots (at say UVa).
