[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - By the way, in case you aren't sure St. Andrew's is not parochial school. We are not Episcopal nor even Christian. [/quote] SAES parent here - your description is a bit unclear. If you are referring to St. Andrew's Episcopal in Potomac (SAES), then yes, it is an Episcopal school. Parochial schools are Catholic, parish-based elementary schools. Most Catholic HS are not parish based, so are not really parochial. Or were you referring to your own religious affiliation? I agree that SAES has a strong emphasis on writing and critical thinking. They also work with the kids as their cognitive abilities grow from concrete thinking to abstract reasoning. But as other posters suggested, I expect that most strong independents focus on these skills. [/quote]
