[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Greetings, We are relocating this month to the area and will get several months of corporate housing through my partner's job (and eventually will officially relocate to a permanent home.) Job is downtown DC and we have options in BCC, Whitman, and possibly Jackson Reed. All get top scores on Great Schools. We have a rising 9th-grade boy who is coming from a large public school in Florida. Are each of these schools similar in culture & personality? They seem to be similar in size. Leaning towards BCC because of the convenience of the apartment (and extra bathroom) but open. Ideally, we would have done school visits with actual kids in the building. If your kid attends any of the schools mentioned will you tell me something you like about the school? I don't need to hear the bad- all schools are not perfect but we would like to get the lay of the land.[/quote] BCC is a great place to lean. We are in the apartments right near the school and it is great set up for the kids. They are able to come home for lunch or open periods (BCC has an open campus).[/quote] Hi PP - good to hear your feedback that BCC is a good place to learn. Are academics strong? I hear Pyle/Whitman are stronger academically than Westland/ BCC. Any feedback would be appreciated.[/quote]
