Barron currently attends Columbia Grammar and Preparatory School, an elite school located in the Upper West Side of Manhattan that runs students about $47,000 a year.
After President Trump was elected, speculation abounded over which school Barron would attend.
Sidwell Friends School was an obvious guess. It has educated multiple first kids, most recently Sasha and Malia Obama. In fact, Barron's choice of St. Andrew's means he's the first not to attend Sidwell in 35 years, according to the Washington Post.
Here's what we know about St. Andrew's:
