[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am familiar with Brent and JKLMM schools.  I don't think it is laughable to consider them similar.  There are differences, mostly related to middle schools, but they both are able to produce well prepared kids.  Kids from Brent go on to St Anselm's, Latin, BASIS, Cap Hill Day School and others and they make the honor roll from day one.  There are differences in the culture and climate and community surrounding these schools, and some may like one over the other.  I'd be interested in hearing the PP's rationale for using such strong language to describe why Brent is not comparable to JKLMM.[/quote]

Some JKLM types are having trouble dealing with the fact that Brent's demographics and academics will soon be comparable to theirs, right downtown, in the hip zone, despite the problem MS feeder.  Maury will struggle a bit to compare, even in 5 years, because its school district has bigger pockets of poverty.  The irony is that not only is Brent poised to become a branch of JKLM EotP, it's veering toward WotP crowding.
