[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree that Burke's MS academics could be stronger, although the school emphasizes soft skills such as collaboration, risk-taking, and self-advocacy. IMO, the academics follow a clear mission and purpose and are still significantly better than what students would receive at Deal or Hardy.[/quote] Better, maybe, but not "significantly" better and certainly not $50k annually better. [/quote] It is definitely better and even more so when comparing Burke US to JR and even Walls. This is not just about Burke, the demand for private schools in the DMV is huge. But you have to pay for it. For many parents the money spent in K-12 is just as important for their kids’ education as college.[/quote] Right, but Burke is charging A-level private-school tuition for a C-level private-school education and experience.[/quote]
