[quote=Anonymous]The school does a very good job of turning freshmen boys into men by the time they graduate, which leads to a lot of student and parent pride. It’s different than the other Catholic high schools in that regard. This causes most parents to overlook or not talk about the downsides. For us the downsides are; it’s expensive (obviously), picking your kid up from practice at 5:30 and driving back to the Maryland suburbs is not fun, it sorta has a mid Atlantic preppy golf shirt/khakis/boat shoes vibe where a lot of the kids do go to southern schools and join fraternities, sports team can be hard to make for a kid without natural abilities/attributes, my kid constantly complains about the quality of the school lunches so we spend a decent amount at the quick serve spots nearby…which are actually very good. But these downsides are really nit picky when you kids high school experience is so positive. We wouldn’t change a thing.[/quote]
