    99 percent. Either attended, sent kids to the schools or have come in contact with the many graduates who remain in the area in all elite walks of life.https://twitter.com/nielslesniewski/status/1041764517854806016 …

    How much of the D.C. press corps has connections to the Montgomery County prep school world, anyway?

        Worth noting GU Prep tuition is 2x Jesuit schools elsewhere charge. St. Peter's Prep in Jersey City is 17, v. 37 for GU. Tim Kaine's alma mater in Kansas City is $12,900 plus "lunch fee" of $1000. Even in Manhattan, Xavier is under 19K. GU Prep is not an ordinary Jesuit school.

        Here's what Prep costs, including ESL classes. Gonzaga, near the Capitol, is about $22K a year, and 35% of kids get financial aid. 26% of Prep kids get financial aid - average is $19K or about half tuition, per school's website.pic.twitter.com/gVBn3DtQE4

        Right. and the other schools offer aid as well. I was a St. Peter's parent until this year, and about a third of the class had full or partial academic scholarship, with need based aid up to 100K of family income also available. So GU Prep is a distinctly more elite experience.
