[quote=Anonymous]I thought I would shed light on what your child's reputation would be amongst his/her peers. I'm sorry if this offends anyone, but it is honestly what people would think based on each school.

[b]Visitation[/b]: smart enough, athletic, legacy, slightly snobby, school spirit (though there is debate about just how genuine their spirit is as a lot of students complain about the school)
[b]Holton Arms[/b]: not Catholic (just for your reference), girls wear the tinniest skirt but they are SMART and have a great college office, generally athletic, socialize with Landon mostly
[b]Stone Ridge[/b]: extremely smart girls who are very nice (opposite of the cliquey high school experience) who go to amazing colleges, not super athletic, seen as "irrelevant" in terms of the social scene
[b]Holy Child[/b]: nice girls who love one another, athletics are not very good, the education is fine, but pales in comparison to the others
[b]Holy Cross[/b]: these girls party hard and know all the guys in the area, the education is okay though they do not have 100% go to college every year, very athletic 
[b]NCS[/b]: not Catholic (just for your reference), athletic for sure, smart but sometimes catty and very competitive

[b]Gonzaga[/b]: extremely athletic, good college placing, tend to hang out only with Visitation girls
[b]Georgetown Prep[/b]: athletic, also great college counseling, nice guys 
[b]Landon[/b]: not Catholic (just for your reference), not necessarily a Montgomery County favorite for all their scandals, but most of the boys there are really nice but seen as irrelevant as they hang out exclusively with Holton girls

[b]St. John's[/b]: the only thing I know about them is that their college counseling is not very good, from what I hear

I recently graduated from Stone Ridge after attending for 14 years. It was honestly the best choice for me and I am so thankful that my parents sent me to SR. It really is an impressive institution with teachers who care about the students knowledge- not just grades. I would pick Stone Ridge for any girl. My class was so loving and caring of one another, and I have made lifelong friends. There were days where I wish I went to an easier school and was more relevant in socializing, but it was all worth it in the end. I attend a top 15 university, which can be credited so much to my education.
