I'm not sure I'd call it a "season", but they have six sessions between late September and late March/early April. Each session lasts 75 minutes.

Is the Cotillion season only in the Fall and early Winter?

Two points re Capital Cotillion: It is more about etiquette in the service of kindness than anything else. Everyone gets asked to dance, no one is overlooked, and sometimes the girls ask the boys. They also offer financial aid.

It's hard to tell in a big room.

So it has to be more than just Beauvoir boys at this event.

It depends on the age and site. For the Maryland site, they are looking for 5th/6th grade girls - the ratio is almost 2:1 boys. For the DC site, I hear it's more balanced at that age.

You would think that rather than leave one girl out ....that the group would have gotten together to help the one girl that didnt have the money. Wow....what am I getting myself in to.
