[quote=Anonymous]Yorktown has a much longer history of very very bright students. OConnell was a local catholic school for (1) families who valued a religious education and (2) local kids who didn’t mind it being catholic and who struggled with a more traditional school like Yorktown. Both schools have changed; in particular, Yorktown’s size has pushed families over to OConnell. That being said, for top students, I wouldn't for a second consider OConnell on par with Yorktown. The reality of the demographics in the Yorktown zone means you plenty of very fancy pants families (yes, your HYP cohort) who don’t have stupid kids either. I’m sure there are very bright kids at OConnell but there are guaranteed to be a cohort of very very bright kids at yhs given its size and zone. There are lots of other reasons to choose OConnell over Yorktown of course but top academic cohort would not be one of them. [/quote]
