[quote=Anonymous]Different parent here. Your kid is arts/orchestra kid and an athlete. I would look at the choice this way: how important is music instruction/play for your DS? Then look at which school offers the best opportunity at further developing that skill. I know prep. Theater and chorale are bigger draws there. But there is Strathmore across the way for added musical education. From what I remember, Potomac School has good instruction in orchestra. Both schools have sports and your kid may not make a sports team. So having a good music option is key. I went thru this with my DD. She turned down a really great private to attend another good one that had an orchestra and strings group. That became her main e.c., and it was baked into her daily curriculum, which she’d us $ on outside music instruction. E.C.s make a difference, especially at college time.[/quote]
