I grew up outside of this area (Philly) and knew of Georgetown Prep but thought it was connected to Georgetown.
My son is now at STA. I had never heard of it prior to moving here.
If any school is associated with that crime, it is UVA, as that is where Hughley attended when the crime was committed.
I’m sorry that, as an obvious Landon parent, you wish the strain of that went to uva. Huguely and love met while he was at Landon, and he murdered her shortly after leaving Landon. He’d barely been at uva. Around the same time, the Duke lacrosse scandal happened, with roots to Landon. The sat cheating scandal in that same time frame as well, along with the arguably racist decisions by Landon about who and who not to expel. You can’t foist that on a school huguely spent five minutes at.
None of that is correct. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Yeardley_Love
NP - So he was at UVA for about two years, so this crime has basically nothing to do with Landon.
Man, the PP really distorted the truth.

So much this! These schools don't have a national reputation, they have a reputation among rich people who travel in certain circles. Rich people who travel in certain circles DOES NOT equal a national reputation.
When I was a kid growing up in PA, the only ones I heard about were Sidwell and NCS because of Chelsea, the Gore daughters and it all started from an article in Sassy Magazine (take that Gilman was in Teen magazine poster!
)

Well, 2 of Prep’s finest are poised to set the country back a hundred years, so I’m sure that will bolster its reputation
