[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have had experience at both schools. 
SSSAS is no doubt stronger academically. 
BI has a bottom tier that wouldn’t survive at sssas.  
That said, SSSAS is no academic powerhouse. It’s a step above BI but it’s no Sidwell.

Look at the curriculum - BI’s is so lacking.  No interesting small seminars. No high level math.

2024 grads - SSSAS did much better.  Granted 2024 was a very strong year for SSSAS. 2025 will not be.

SSSAS faculty is way more impressive overall. Many great teachers despite a few duds.

bI did just poach two great coaches from SSSAS. So that’s not good news for SSSAS. But now with the new high school there is no comparison in facilities.

You get what you pay for.  [/quote]

This is just patently false, BI has Cal A/B and B/C, engineering, and computer science classes. BI truly has a great facility built in 2020 and top students and BI are on par with SSSAS. Maybe not a few years ago, but definitely in the last few years. Many top college placements at SSSAS were sports related--just noting. [/quote]
