[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Declining Burke and St John's, going to J-R. [/quote] what made you change your mind and stick with public?[/quote] Neither private seemed like a great fit for our DC or our family, and as we seriously considered the cost and pros/cons, it weighed towards public. Burke is lovely but our kid is sporty and was not thrilled with Burke's athletics. Burke's academic offerings did not seem $45K/year better than J-R. St John's athletic facilities are great but for our kid's favorite sport, J-R plus travel will be good. Our kid was not accepted for the St John's honors program, so we'd rather support DC to do their very best at J-R, take APs, and tutor as needed. [/quote]
