Anyone have experience with private schools in Portland?

I live near-ish to Portland. I know some people who go to Caitlin gabel, they say the academics are great and it’s an okay school overall. My best friend also goes to trinity academy which is smaller and not as well known, she loves it. I’ve met her teachers and the whole community seems super great, although they don’t offer any ap classes so if you’re interested in that, it probably wouldn’t be a great choice. Also have you looked into Jesuit? It’s another really great school, but you do have two solid choices with OES and Caitlin gabel.
I’ve had no direct experience with either, other than my son’s school in Medford (St. Mary’s) used to routinely meet one or the other in the state soccer tournament (and get beat 
).
My impression however has always been that both are quite good. Have you visited both? Any friends going to either?
It’s hard to see how either is a bad choice, but really more of a matter of fit.
Thanks, haven’t visited either yet but hope to soon.
Thanks, we definitely want AP option but will look at Jesuit too.
