i think this thread is geared towards ranking and not what's best for your kid


That’s what I took it as. Otherwise commute and a bunch of other stuff come into play

i thought we were ranking the schools overall - not based on what we are/were/would be looking for.


Exactly. Nothing else considered. If that’s the case, this list is all around garbage. If we are going purely academics and overall:

NPS
St Pats

Now do what you choose with the rest. LOL

you should send your kid to the school that is best for your kid, of course. but that is different than ranking.... and yea, obviously ranking is subjective. aren't you capable of thinking in terms other thann those that directly involve your kid? that is so dc. helicopter parents praying to a GDS/sidwell altar ! haha.

There are a multitude of different criteria you can use to rank schools though which makes it entirely subjective.
