[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are at SSSAS currently - our child transferred from another of the schools mentioned. If I had to do it all over again I would have gone SSSAS all the way. The lower math classes at SSSAS are filled with ACDS, Browne and other transfer students - many have to repeat algebra even with straight A's at the other schools. I would NOT have chosen DC's k-8 school had I known what SSSAS is really like-DC loves it and it is really far superior to the others. Don't wait for HS to realize that your tier 2 school delivered a tier 2 education - go for SSSAS, make one of the others your back up, and transfer in as soon as you can (trust me - that is what the smart ACPS parents do - they DON"T wait for HS unless there is a real problem with academics. [/quote] Maybe that's because the better students from the other Alexandria privates choose not to go to St. Stephens for high school so SSSAS is left with taking in the kids who are behind academically.
