[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]You left out the West Potomac district, which has a large number of kids who come from backgrounds where education is highly valued. Given a choice, I'd pick West Potomac over TC Williams, Hayfield or Edison.[/quote] TC also has a large number of kids and families who highly value education. This year's class received offers from Stanford, Cornell, Penn, UVA (many, many kids), Middlebury, Duke, Haverford, Oberlin, William & Mary, Wesleyan, Johns Hopkins, Smith and Columbia, among others. And only one was an athletic recruit (Columbia). I'm sure our stats hold up against those of Edison, Hayfield, or West Potomac -- or St. Stephen's, for that matter. [/quote] Exept the question I would have is whether this is a sliver of a sample. It's almost like T.C. is an apartheid system, which is not an environment I'd want my kids in, even if they were among the achievers.[/quote]
