[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here , DS does play a sport and part of a classical orchestra . Has a few friends going to Prep but knows a few kids at Potomac . We are not Catholic - he shadowed both and liked both but preferred Potomac . The commute to the school and back in VA makes me nervous even if they have a great bus system! [/quote] It’s as if the Catholic aspect of Prep is some minor attribute. For many of the parents who send their sons there it’s a very important thing. The great majority of the students, alumni, teachers and staff are Catholics. The school is owned by a Catholic religious order, is headed by a Jesuit priest and adheres to Jesuit educational principles. Catholic religious ceremonies are mandatory parts of the experience. The student body interacts/dates/hangs out mostly with girls who go to Catholic schools (SR, Visi, AHC and Holy Child). And yet this core attribute of the school is traded-off somehow against an easier commute.[/quote] And yet my son dated a Holton young lady. The boys date from every school out there . Silly post.[/quote]
