What is wrong with the current administration there. What about the boys who have worked their ass off in the off-season and are hoping to crack the lineup. They brought in two senior transfers for football back in August and one of them has already left and enrolled back in his prior public school. Bullis will always be viewed as a safety school in this area.

Here's another star Bullis football player, but this one started in 8th grade and is being recruited by Harvard. The top running back and the quarterback have also been there since Middle School, and last year's QB started in 3rd grade. Maybe you should ask these parents directly if they are upset about one senior transfer joining the team.

Then it's too bad Bullis wasn't willing to compete with its "home grown" players and had to rent, I mean, recruit, senior year transfers from public schools.

Interesting. This poster is complaining about lack of dedication to the home grown player while another thread is arguing why tuition costs at the schools are rising faster than the rate of inflation. Bullis increased its visibility by identifying a high value scholarship recipient senior year? What a financially prudent move for Bullis.

It is somewhat naive to think K-12 schools charging tuitions comparable to colleges and universities are not going to engage in some of the same practices of those colleges and universities.

What is wrong with high school preparing young folks for the real world through competition and hard work and arduous homework. I dont get it.

I understand elementary school and middle school tender years but a 14 year old is a young person who should handle 3 hours of homework in preparation for college just under 4 years away.

We have regressed as a country and this "lots of homework is bad" is why we have fallen behind other industrialized nations.

Bullis is a fine fine school and the top kids can go to top places. But they are doing a disservice to their students by not pushing them. So even if the top students get into top schools, they wont be as well prepared for college or life.

Bullis gives the balance kids need to succeed and enjoy the short 4 years of HS they have before college. Many people I know have had not only one but both two or three children at Bullis and all have gone to very respectable colleges. I believe Bullis to provide what kids need to be successful and happy kids that can move forward into a smooth transition to a college suited for them.
