[quote=Anonymous]Taking OP's post at face value, I think many of the suggestions are worth a look, especially GDS, WIS, Burke, Field, possibly Maret and Latin (charter w/ lottery entry). These schools all have different strengths but all have very smart and thoughtful kids, and while some are strong in particular sports, none is a "sports" school per se. Since you said that he "really needs a stimulating environment to reach his potential" you may want to look first at Burke and Field since they are thought to offer bright but less motivated kids more of a leg up. GDS and WIS tend to get a lot of self-starters. Definitely agree that you should let your child's strengths speak for themselves a bit more. You will find that many of the children at strong DC schools, whether public , private, or charter, are "VERY" bright and mature.[/quote]
