Deal is one of the top schools in America, as is School Without Walls.

Go to Fairfax or Montgomery County if you cannot afford to go private.

Deal is fine. It is not marvelous. IAnd do all the people gushing about Benneker ever look at their test scores? Pretty uninspiring. The choices in DC are so lackluster that we set the bar VERY low.

But do not make it a negative for those who selected Eastern as their high-school choice. No you shouldn't have any regrets but please be fair when assessing us and don't just disregard us becuase we're not diverse.


Eastern is generally disregarded for its weak accademic offerings (and evidence of performance), not its lack of diversity. But like many, I'll reserve judgement until I see suitable academic programs and test scores to some day consider sending my kids there.
