[quote=Anonymous]Getting back to OP question.

1) which sport your son likes matters in this instance. For boys, Potomac has a strong soccer team, baseball team, basketball team, track and lacrosse team- not a good football team. If your kid is gung ho football and wants to get recruited, Potomac may not be the place. Potomac has a many Ivy and top 25 D1/2/3 recruited athletes in a variety of sports though.

2- Does your kid care about making varsity? Landon generally fields strong teams across most sports and probably has more sporty boys, but as a result there  may not be room for a freshman unless he’s a rock star. Potomac has many sporty boys, just fewer than Landon since it’s not all boys. So there is a chance as a freshman to make varsity

3) which academics is your kid drawn to? Each school has a unique set of differentiators by subject.

4) does your boy want to interact with girls at school

5) where do you live? Honestly if I were in MD I would choose Landon and if I were in VA Potomac- you are at school so much for sports and events that proximity to home becomes a real thing. If I were in a central DC location wouldn’t be a factor[/quote]
