[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote For the most part, 90% of the indepenent schools in this area offer a much wider academic curriculum for students to choose from and have much better resources. If you are trying to tell me, Gonzaga or St Johns or DeMatha have great facilities and challenging academics, you are clearly an alumnus of one of these schools. [/quote] Basically you are saying that GP, GZ and SJC are sub par academically compare to any idem pendent school? Why is that?[/quote] I can't remember anyone writing that GP, GZA and SJC are academically weaker than ANY independent school. These three schools --- along with some others --- serve the rather large DC-area Catholic community. GP has long been viewed as being more generally selective than GZA or SJC, but it still has students across a range of academic interest and ability. GZA, a larger school than GP in an urban setting, also has kids who are as bright as the top students at any Independent school and those who are not. SJC went through a long down period in the 1980's and has been struggling to regain their past standing. It appears they have a number of new programs.[/quote]
