You left out that these are all athletic recruits. But yes that is impressive. There is also a lacrosse commit to Princeton.

Even athletic recruits need to have the grades and well roundedness it takes to get into an ivy. We aren’t talking about Miami Hurricane football recruits that can get in full ride with Ds and a rapsheet. Let’s not take away from the fact that it’s still wonderful for them and something that excites other girls in terms of future possibilities for themselves

Range rovers and BMWs for seniors? I’m seeing some super luxe cars with the senior scribbles all over it in the school parking lot.

Are we really buying kids 150k cars these days? We can afford it, I’m just not sure what’s the point? What happened to the classic DMV trope “don’t show your wealth”

Is this your first rodeo? Take a look in student lots around DMV privates and you will see a very similar assortment of $$$ cars that kids are driving. Plenty of very expensive cars in the Whitman lot too.

No these are not NEW 150k range rovers or BMWs purchased for their kids in the vast majority of cases. Used or family third car passed down.

And yes, this is not unique in any way to SR. But you knew that.

Did any of them actually play for SR or just their elite club teams? Pretty common for kids not playing for their school team because it’s not on their level. Plus SR doesn’t give credit for doing club sports which would actually encourage school participation (I.e. other schools give you independent study credit for club sports as long as you play that sport for the school)

All of these girls play for both SR and club lacrosse teams

You do get PE credit if you play outside of school. My DD did this last year.

The sport was volleyball and she only did club.
