[quote=Anonymous]i have written before on this subject.   i have grandchildren at Big 3, MCPS and Prep.  All three offer excellent educations.  Because classes are smaller, the kids attending Big 3 and Prep get more individual attention.  Prep offers a very rigorous education for the kids who take the most advanced classes, and because they have a student body with a range of talents and abilities ( unlike Big 3 where everyone is a very talented student), a student is bale, like in the case of my grandson to do advanced work in language and English and social studies, and on grade level work in STEM subjects.  At the big three ALL the STEM classes are advanced.  The MCPS kids ( I have more than one) have excellent STEM classes ( although they are crowded), but the foreign language and English teaching is not as good as either Prep or Big 3.  Big 3 has the most homework.  Prep and MCPS about the same.  What i personally like about Prep is the commitment to the value of each individual, so that lower achievers feel they are valued community members, as opposed to constantly be compared with others.  I assume that Gonzaga and St. Johns are similar in this respect.  Prep is a good fit for my grandson.  I can't understand why this board is so anti-Catholic.  Catholic education is a great choice for some kids.[/quote]
