[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had two boys go through MD from the 5th grade on. Both went to GP. Both were above average athletes.

The all-male teachers they had at MD understood boys much better than the all women teachers they had had at parish and public schools. The MD teachers were demanding in the classroom and on the playing fields. They seemed to me to be much less prone to listen to excuses or alibis.

There was one incident where one of the boys was being maltreated by a large group. They put a stop to that quickly and definitively involving the president, headmaster and the teachers. It’s small enough so that everybody knows everything that is going on.

But MD is an all boys, all Catholic school with a significant interest in athletics and a student population that almost all going to go to Prep, Gonzaga or St Johns for high school.

Do your boys look back positively on MD and GP?
How did your kids do after GP? College and beyond that is... Did it prepare them for life? Great colleges? [/quote]
