I have a spouse who teaches at BI and the staff there is very dissatisfied. The Catholicism is a huge part of things each day, naturally. They take a big group to the Right to Life March each year and many are Trump supporters. SSSA is equal in terms of academics and more laid back. I would never send my kid to BI.

My kid got into BI w/ a scholarship & decided to go to Gonzaga. So glad he made that decision![/quote]

I find these posts maddening.

If your spouse isn’t happy, why stay. There are open positions everywhere in education. We have friends at BI that, like every Catholic school, AND every private in this area, are Rs and Ds. Honestly, if that is how your teacher spouse interprets or defines her students, s/he should move along.

We are Catholic school family in Alexandria and my DC are elsewhere also, but BI  is a great option. I have no idea how it compares to SSSA. I know families there that seem happy also.

DSs go to Gonzaga also, but I would be happy to support BI. There are other boys who got into Gonzaga but with the scholarship to BI, opted for that option. Why trash schools that your kids don’t attend? PP, it is not Jesuit way. [/quote]

+1 Thank you for this. My kids also attend a different school, but I know MANY families that are happy at SSSAS and BI. We are lucky there are many options around for everyone. Why are people talking poorly about a school they don’t even send their kids to? Be kind, DCUM[/quote]
