[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not true. Turned down several hundreds of applicants last year, and have a 45% increase in applications this year, and, significantly less turnover than most private schools. You keep focusing on Bullis' past, and those of us with children there who are happy, challenged in school (including all of last year when most were 100% virtual), who are tested every week, learning a lot with small class sizes and great teachers, as well as a fabulous new HOS, will just keep nodding and smiling. We know that the joke is on you[/quote] Correct. I know of multiple families that were outright rejected last year (not waitlisted). This year, the applicant pool is even larger. While I agree that there were some significant tailwinds for the school with Covid, the impact the HoS is having is real. The school has a lot of legacy to shake, and I find myself a bit defensive about that. It really is such a wonderful place for our kids and it's a shame people continue to judge the school so harshly. [/quote]
