[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bullis is mostly boys, especially in the upper school. Tour the school. You’ll seeing classes with one girl. There are also behavior problems, lots of cheating, and bullying issues at Bullis. Admin does nothing about this. None of that happens or is tolerated at Potomac and it’s roughly half boys and half girls.[/quote]

This has not been our experience at all.  Our daughter has lots of other girl friends at Bullis and has a good mix of boys and girls in her classes.  She is very happy there.   It's true that there are more boys than girls in the upper school, but we haven't found it to be an appreciable difference.  At least, not one that has affected her education or overall experience.    [/quote]

My daughter goes to a Bullis feeder (about 50% of the class go to Bullis) and the students at her current school have serious behavioral issues. So I’m inclined to believe the original post about bullying. It is one of the reasons we didn’t apply to Bullis for high school. We already knew some of the kids that would more than likely be at Bullis and it is a major red flag for us. [/quote]

Your school sends 50% of the 8th grade class to Bullis??  Unless your daughter's grade has only around 24 kids in total, your math seems to be off.
