[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agreed Commuting from DC to go to Potomac makes no sense [/quote] That completely depends where you are. Palisades? Just as easy to get to Potomac as St. Albans.[/quote] If you also work in dc then no the palisades doesn’t help. [/quote] Doesn't Potomac require student to take the bus?[/quote] Yes, after K kids ride the bus. Once they drive themselves they are able to park in a nearby parking lot and take a shuttle from there. We live in McLean and I would choose STA if your DS is a strong student (which obviously he is). DS toured both for HS and DS did shadows at both, etc. He had a much more favorable impression of the school and the students at STA despite knowing kids at both. We also found the parents at STA to be very welcoming. We attended a soccer game and the parents were low key and friendly. [/quote] Also, is STA all DC skids? Would a child from the burns fit in? Is single sex less of an issue since NCS so close? Can you elaborate? What was more favorable about STA vs Potomac? What do you think about the commute, would that be worth it? How are athletics at STA vs Potomac? Thanks for any info![/quote][/quote]
