[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Truly, if your children would do well in one of these schools, they will do well in all of them.  PPs have pointed out that Lafayette is huge, if that matters to you.  Find a house you like in a neighborhood you like and your kids will do just fine.

Plenty of kids- and parents - in DC would give anything to have access to any one of these schools.  You're very fortunate to be able to afford living in bounds for any of them.  I am not trying to sanctimonious, just trying to provide some perspective.[/quote]

To keep some perspective, these are good schools for DC.  That may not necessarily be true against schools in better-run districts.[/quote]

Mmm no. These are good schools, period.[/quote]

Our DD goes to Deal.  Math teaching is terrible and in another subject she has had a parade of different substitutes.  Deal is only good compared to the DC public alternatives.  I giess You could say it’s very good for DC.

Agree, we currently have 2 students in different grades at Deal. I have not seen any evidence that the school is challenging, in any way. Maybe that qualifies as good.[/quote]

Well, since we’re going with anecdotes about individual kids to prove that Deal is good or bad or something else...my two kids in different grades at Deal are challenged and happy. [/quote]

I'm glad to hear that, sometimes I think the place is just going through the motions.[/quote]
