[quote=Anonymous]We have 2 kids at Bullis, one is in the Upper School. He is a very strong athlete and plays on a high level club team. He has enjoyed trying out some different sports at Bullis, along with playing his main sport. While the school team is not as strong as his club team, he loves playing-it is such a different experience playing a high school game with so many of your peers cheering you on than the basically parent only crowd at his club games. The college counseling team provides support for families navigating the NCAA.
The resources at Bullis are great. For a child that loves science, the labs and other technology offerings are fantastic. We have also been very impressed with the Arts department. 
There has been staff turnover, but there have been a lot of changes over the past 6 years with higher up positions, so I think it’s natural that people come and go as things settle-new HOS, new lower school head (previous one retired), new upper school head (previous one took another head position to be closer to family a distance away) , new middle school head (previous one retired). 
My children are extremely happy. The academics are strong and you, as a student, can really lean in and push yourself, if you choose to. I have one child that is all in academically and one that is not. The faculty support for both is strong. The school works very hard at building relationships with students, in our experience. We are not close to the wealth of many families at Bullis, but no one really cares, and if they do, we haven’t felt it. It is an inclusive community with many opportunities to get involved, should you choose to. 
Good luck with admissions and your decision. All of your options are good ones![/quote]
