So Churchill has better kids


If Better = Richer


Is it really rich? There are a lot of private schools nearby. But yes , more money reduces single moms and crime


But seems to amplify drug use and racial incidents

OP there are people on this thread who really do not know what they are talking about. EVERY single Es, MS and HS in the greater Bethesda area has a huge international contingent.

Contrary to a PP, I would say Churchill is actually more mixed income than Whitman. There is a large stretch of more middle class housing in Potomac, and some affordable housing, that those fixated on the uber-wealthy contingent overlook. This is reflected in the demographic info posted above.

Both are very excellent schools. Both ahve a wealthy student body.
I would say biggest difference is make up of the population (data from the CIP):
Churchill 32% Asian, 43% white
Whitman 15% Asian, 60% white
