I thought that Maret was the copycat.


Maret was first. GDS copied Maret. Burke copied GDS. Field copied Burke.

That's the six degrees of separation of DC's secular private schools.


Interesting. Thank you


Personally, I am so glad for these copycats, so we have more schools to choose from.

This is a dumb thought experiment. Don’t all schools share a common purpose? That was a rhetorical question.

Any school is a copycat of schools from hundreds of years ago in most ways.

They are both copycats of Fieldston, but of course in DC.

Answer: They’re both overrated.

LMAO. I hope I never have to meet the person that thinks this way and poses this question. Do you really think that the administration at either school is trying to copycat the other or feels that has been done to them? Do you really think the administration at either school is trying to be better than the other.? I think every school is trying to do the best they can for the students they have, and pay very little serious attention to what’s going on elsewhere. Nor would they have the way to do so.

Dumb senseless question. They’re different from one another. They’re both good. They both turn out fine students. Choose the one that suits you best. Goodbye.
