[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're all about smaller class sizes.  Wouldn't Bullis have the advantage there over public school?  New poster here.[/quote]

My kids aren't near 3rd grade yet, so I've never looked at Bullis.  I do know a former Bullis teacher who says nothing but great things about the school and has highly recommended as a nurturing school that provides kids with a lot of individual attention.  Without even having looked at it, I think I can say that I would definitely choose Bullis for my kids over public school.  The average class size is 15 at Bullis.  I seriously doubt you find that at any public school.  I also think that smaller schools offer kids many more opportunities than public to participate in sports, arts, public speaking, and writing.  I believe that the MoCo public schools offer a great academic education, but I think for those looking for a more well-rounded experience, Bullis would be a better choice than public.

I totally agree. My kids have been at both MoCo schools k-11 and private 4 - 9. While the MoCo schools are "rigorous" the privates educate the whole child. Moco is factory education. Get em in get out. A ton of material is thrown at the students but there is really not enough time for real teaching. The kids are expected to learn it on their own time.  I hate that. I have one DC that loves his public school and one that loves his private. It really depends on the kid.
