Where graduates go, as the school itself publishes it. Garrison Forest School's own list (Three-Year Survey), enrolled: James Madison University (3), University of Delaware (3), Elon (2), Loyola University Maryland (2), Miami University - Oxford (2).
Worth asking admissions: the school profile. Reach doesn't yet show this school's SAT/ACT or AP results. Every private school produces a counselor's "school profile" for colleges, and most post it online — ask admissions for it. How a school answers says as much as the numbers.

Composed from this page's data — every claim is backed by a number in the sections below.
