[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you live in Chevy Chase, apply to BS. HR is VERY insular. I went there in the 80s and my classmates still live there and send their kids there. BS is also a lot bigger so more opportunities for friends. More diverse as well. [/quote]

Thank you. We are smack in the middle of both schools, so either would work from a logistics standpoint. Is the diversity you are referencing at Blessed Sacrament an ethnic/racial one, economic one, or both? We are pretty middle class, so we wouldn’t want our kids to feel like fish out of water if the majority of their classmates are strengthening friendships after school or weekends at country clubs that we won’t be able to belong to (I say this because I believe someone previously stated many Blessed Sacrament families belong to Columbia Country Club, if I am not mistaken.)  Alternatively, if we do not live in Kensington, will it be difficult for our children to make friends at Holy Redeemer given it’s so insular?

Both schools seem equally nice from the outside. We will be visiting during the Open Houses come October, but it’s always interesting to get an insiders perspective. Thanks to all again who have been responding! (And yes I am not the original poster who was Jewish inquiring about the school. Our family is Catholic, hence the interest in the parochial schools.)[/quote]
