[quote=Anonymous]So much vitriol! Smaller class sizes can make a difference. SJC class sizes are still smaller than many MCPS schools (I cannot speak for DC/VA/other in MD), though a bit larger than at Bullis. If inclined, check out AP offerings or flexibility with scheduling (for example - can a student who excels in Chem take honors if behind in math or must they be on-grade level in both), arts offerings, teacher access (would expect it to be better in smaller schools - but ask). Will it lead to IVY equivalent acceptance alone? Not likely. College admissions are sometimes almost like a crapshoot anyway (especially pandemic era) so better to find the school that best fits your needs. Do athletes get an advantage? Yes - very good ones do ... at all private schools. Pretty sure they do not comprise the majority of each class, however. Yes, $ is crazy. Not for everyone but definitely for some. [/quote]
