They are just completely different schools.
U-High is incredibly small for a high school. I believe each class graduates maybe 100 boys and girls combined (possibly less) while this year's SJA class is around 275. That's a huge social difference as far as your daughter is concerned. Could be good or bad depending on your daughter.
U-High will be able to give your daughter more one on one attention and sports opportunities that may be more difficult at SJA. SJA is highly competitive in all areas, and the sheer number of girls allows them to be extremely selective, especially when small teams are considered - cheer, dance, tennis, etc.
As far as the political stuff at SJA, they were definitely trending in that direction around Covid/2020, but the parents pushed back bigly. I haven't heard of anything from parents in the past few years. That stuff nearly disappeared. I can't speak for U-High on that note.
I do know a large number of girls are headed to SJA for 9th next year. Not sure why exactly. I can confidently say they're both great schools, just for different reasons. It's really an apples/oranges comparison. ETA...moving from U-High to SJA.
