[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bullis? What?[/quote] Yeah, the poster was pretty reasonable up until that point. Bullis does have an excellent sports program in some high profile sports (boys: football, basketball, lacrosse; girls: basketball and lacrosse) and they've got a good campus and faculty. It's not one of the more selective schools and some of the things they've done in pursuit of the sports are questionable -- for example, some of the kids (all of whom are athletes) do not go to a regular class schedule but just work in the revamped library (now a Learning Center) with specialists. That could actually be great for those kids in terms of helping them get to grade level, but it's not a sign of a strong academic school that there are kids who are not in actually classes. If you're looking for kindler, gentler, lots of individual focus, easier to get into than the top DC privates, not with the questions from the sports practices, I would probably cite St. Andrews.[/quote]
