[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Renting out space to another school (Green Acres.) I am not saying they are clodung BUT it is not a good sign. [/quote]

Could be describe that in more detail? I’m pretty sure every school with a pool, for example, rents it out. Schools rent out field space in the summer for day camps. NCS & WIS rent out space for weddings.[/quote]

Green Acres rented out a building to another school on a permanent basis.

We also felt like their facilities were not well-maintained.

I’m not saying they’re closing, but we didn’t get the impression that the school is well-run.[/quote]

I think that private schools that don’t have high schools are more likely to struggle with alumni donations because if they finish at a school in 6th or 8th grade, there’s at least another decade before an alum is going to be in a position to donate much. By 23+ you’re too far removed from where you went to elementary school to care.[/quote]

Nah, spouse and I went to Baltimore private schools and k-8 Calvert is the only school that gets our money.[/quote]

Which high schools did you go to so that I can avoid them?[/quote]

Gilman and Bryn Mawr.  We avoid them too![/quote]
