Here's another transfer to Bullis, by way of Buffalo.

Coming for Junior and Senior year and "reclassifying" for Football.

I'm sure Mom and Dad got transferred to the area LOL.

Seriously. If you’re not a serious sports family it’s really hard to see the point of most private high schools.

Value of nothing, price of everything, huh?

I interpret this to mean you call me a cynic, quoting Oscar Wilde. As if I see only the price of a school like Bullis and not its true value. Can you explain its true value to a family of a bright student, with a relatively good public option, and absolutely no interest in sports?

People choose to go to Bullis for the opportunity to play in college and get into schools that they might not if it weren't for athletics.

End of story. Different types of young people making choices that best suit them. I would be excited for either, and wish them luck for the paths they pursue.

But Bullis still can’t win the Founder’s Cup—presented to the IAC’s top athletic program. Prep has won it 14 out of the last 16 years, including this past year—all while maintaining an average SAT score of 1386 and an 8:1 student-to-faculty ratio.

Good for them. However, nobody is comparing Bullis to Prep or any other school. It’s an option that may work for some, and not for others.

How is Prep and Bullis comparable? I wouldn't even consider Prep because of the religious piece as well as their long history of issues within in the school and outside school hours.

Yes—Prep’s long history of producing SCOTUS Justices, Federal Reserve Chairs, NFL team owners, MLB GMs, Pulitzer Prize, Medal of Honor and Emmy Award recipients, US Poet Laureates, inventor of chemotherapy, US congressmen, US senators, ambassadors and CEOs. You’re absolutely right—no comparison. Who has Bullis produced? Duane Haskins? Give me a break.
