[quote=Anonymous]It always shocks me how critical people are of a school that they have little direct knowledge of, and how some assume that college lists are the end all be all. True, Bullis has had an outstanding year with college acceptances...different students getting into all the top private Unversities, and many getting significant aid, merit and need-based ( the school is far more economically diverse than many private schools). I have been connected to the school for a dozen years. What I see is that the kids are happy...well-rounded, into arts and athletics, big on Community Service. It is a friendly school and the students are polite. My son is challenged but not stressed and he couldn't be happier. He plays two sports, is heavily involved in the music program, and has lovely friends from a diverse range of bacgrounds. It might not be the right place for your kid, but it works for us. If you want to learn more about the school, visit the website and come for a tour. I think this forum is rather silly...I wouldn't pick or discard a school for my child based on what anonymous posters say on a forum. How blessed we are to live in a region with a variety of great schools, public and private. I hope all children have a positive school experience...and that parents could ease up a bit with the comparisons, rankings, and elitism.[/quote]
