[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thinking things through as the binding date approaches. 
My son is smart, funny, athletic, and very conscientious about his school work (in part due to anxiety which he hides well).  We thought (think) STA would be a great fit 
because he thrives when teachers invest in him. However, I have no doubt that he would thrive at any school. He's a kid who does what is expected of him. 
Do you think STA is good investment and worth $50K a year for high school?  Would welcome any thoughts and please be kind.  [/quote]

OP, it's impossible to answer this question for you. Is it a stretch for you to come up with $200,000 to send your kid to four years of high school, or are you made of money? What kind of "investment" are you talking about?  Will it get him into a better college than if he goes to Next Door High School?  No. Will he get a better high school education than if he goes to Next Door High School?  Quite possibly. Will he love and thrive in the community at STA, as compared to Next Door High School?  Impossible to know.

If you're really looking to put a dollar value on this decision, that's a 100% personal choice. No one can decide that but you.[/quote]
