[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ Arent there country club types in every private school in northern Virginia/MD/DC area whether it's religious or not religious. I can't imagine a small catholic school has more than Potomac? 
All the schools we toured Potomac, Little Langley, St Luke, OLGC, Beauvoir, Stoneridge for our DD going into K has these types. 
I'm more worried about bullying in schools? How does OLGC address? As compared to the other schools?[/quote]

OLGC brought an expert in to lecture the students, parents, and teachers about bullying and while well-intentioned, it was a bit bizarre and those who most needed to attend didn't bother.  Basically the way the school is addressing bullying by driving out those who are being bullied. Encouraging parents whose kid are bullied to try to work it out themselves. Lots of talk of kindness and praying and no action.  Several families have pulled their kids or are pulling their kids at the end of the year and going elsewhere because of the lack of addressing.[/quote]
