[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]oh my dear, if this is a real person, please know your parents are very proud of you and your future is so so bright regardless of where you attend High School.  That being said, I think your health comes before anything, and I do mean anything, so I can understand your parents not being sold on this.  They are good parents who want to set you up for success.  A long commute is a real toll on parents, not to mention a HS kid who will I'm sure be staying up late studying and if you are like most teenagers, are going to be sleep deprived.  Here is my 2 cents. Keep a spreadsheet with the Pros and Cons of attending SWW, and let your parents know you need their support in making this decision.  Of course at the end of the day, your parents would have the final say but based on your post here, it sounds like your parents did something right and would hopefully support a dialogue.  Now is the time to speak to current and former SWW students, parents, teachers.. you get the idea, right? You need to get info from real people, not an anonymous forum, and not just 1-2 people, but as many people as you can.  Talk to them on the phone, over coffee, meet up at a coffee shop, meet up at the school, whatever it takes to get info from the admission office, staff and administration.  Take all advice with a grain of salt, and document the Pros and Cons.  Some of this will be very personal, so you would need to write pros and cons with regards to your health care, how you will manage that.  Talk to your pediatrician about the commute and the impact it would have on your health.  Know that where every you go, you will go far.  Good luck!  [/quote]

Wow. Thank you.

I'll make sure and do that. I am copying and pasting this into a Word document.

Again, thank you so much. [/quote]
