Bullis School is a private, co-educational college preparatory day school for grades K-12. The school is located in Potomac, Maryland, a suburb of Washington, D.C.

History

Bullis School was founded in Washington D.C. in 1930 by Commander William Francis Bullis as a preparatory school for the United States Naval Academy and the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York. The school moved in 1935 to Silver Spring, Maryland, and began its four-year college preparatory program. Between 1964 and 1971, the school moved to its current location in Potomac, Maryland, and in 1981, became a co-educational institution.^[3]

Academics

According to Bullis' 2021-2025 Strategic Plan, the school aims to "promote joyfulness and intentionally avoid an atmosphere of overwhelming stress and pressure."^[4]

Students from the graduating class of 2023 matriculated to 83 different colleges and universities.^[5]

Bullis is accredited by the Association of Independent Maryland & DC Schools (AIMS) and Maryland State Department of Education^[6] and is a member of the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools.^[7]

Athletics

Competitive sports are introduced in Middle School. Upper and Middle School students participate in more than 60 interscholastic teams in a variety of sports with other area independent schools.

Upper School students participate in the IAC and ISL leagues. Fall sports include football, cheerleading, boys and girls soccer, girls' tennis, field hockey and cross-country. Winter sports include boys and girls basketball, wrestling, ice hockey and swimming. Spring sports include softball, baseball, boys and girls' lacrosse, boys' tennis, golf, and track and field.^[8]

Green energy

Bullis ranks fourth in the US according to the EPA's Green Power Partnership.^[9] The school is powered by wind through the purchase of wind credits and the production of solar energy from 540 photovoltaic solar panels installed in December 2009 on the roof of the school's Blair Center.^[10]
