[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would say St B and Buckley are roughly comparable, though St B is more academic and Buckley a bit more sporty. St David has the religious component, which can be a deal breaker or deal maker for many. Town is a step below all three IMO, though it is obviously co-ed if you prefer that.[/quote]

We were deciding between Saint David's and Saint Bernard's are now at Saint David's. We ruled out Buckley because it was too sporty for us. Talking to other St. D and St. B families, I feel this is pretty common. When we toured Buckley, there were sports trophies everywhere and most of the art was sports art. We learned they regularly take a bus to Randall's island and back during the school day for gym class. As a STEM-leaning family, we knew this wasn't going to be a good fit for our son. We're not catholic, but half of Saint David's families aren't either. The school has a religious tradition, but it is pretty much a secular school.[/quote]

Why did you pick st d over st b?[/quote]
