[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Former Bullis parent here.  Given the $40K plus price tag...it is simply the public school you pay for.  Period.  End of story.  Couch it anyway you want, but it is not an academic school.  Sure, the top several kids get into good schools.  But it does not go anywhere near as deep into the class as Churchill or other public comparables.  Those 5 or so kids would have done well anywhere.  It wasnt the school.  It was the kid.

It is VERY status oriented.  What does your parent do.  Does you parent work at Bullis.  What vacations do you go on/  These things matter there more than anywhere.  It is full of very unimpressive parents who went to unimpressive schools who want a status symbol.  So much Lululemon, you could open a store.  Then the athletics.  If your child wants to prioritize this, Bullis is the place for you.  Good place to learn about money, status and athletics.  And how the gaudy nouveau rich behaves.

Nice campus though.  [/quote]
