It’s Sidwell or our IB public school. It’s the only private school we’re willing to pay for, honestly. However, I would be lying if I said it isn’t nerve racking to put all of our eggs into this one tiny basket. 4 pm cannot come quickly enough—ugh!

Nope!

Of course, NO “unhooked” DC private school students are being admitted to top 25 colleges. 🙄


If “unhooked” public school route is better? Please help me understand. We are Langley high school pyramid. What about STEM focused kid?


I have the same question. My child is unhooked and stem-oriented. Langley/McLean School pyramid in FCPS. So, what route is better?

Bullis is getting a lot of love these days in part due to the fantastic HoS.
