In this April 17, 2017, file photo, President Donald Trump, accompanied by first Lady Melania Trump, introduces their son Barron Trump from the Truman Balcony of the White House in Washington, during the annual Easter Egg Roll. Not since John F. Kennedy appointed his brother Bobby to be attorney general and his brother-in-law as director of the Peace Corps has a president leaned so heavily on his family. Melania, meanwhile, has been a largely distant presence so far, remaining in New York for the most part while their son Barron finishes out the school year. But she is gradually spending more time in Washington and did give her husband a gentle nudge to put his hand on his heart during the playing of the national anthem at the Easter egg roll.

Not everyone went to school in DC.

First Lady Melania Trump announced in May that her son Barron will start school this fall at St. Andrew's Episcopal School in Potomac, Maryland.

Melania and Barron Trump moved into the White House on Sunday, which they had delayed so that Barron could finish the year at his New York City-based day school rather than moving to Washington, D.C. right away.

With an eye on first kids who were teenagers or young adults when their parents lived in the White House, as far back as President Richard Nixon, Business Insider took a look at elementary, middle, or high schools they attended.

Take a look below to see who attended prep schools in the nation's capitol, and who went elsewhere.
