[quote=Anonymous]What age? We looked at both (and DS was accepted to both) for HS but chose Heights because of convenience. My impression is that the curricula are very similar (classical liberal arts) but there are definitely options for less academically gifted kids at the Heights, as well as rigorous courses and several APs for those aiming for top colleges. St anselms is probably more homogeneous in terms kids' intellectual ability/curiosity. But we have found mamy of the Heights teachers to be outstanding as teachers and as role models, which is important to us. We are Catholic but not as conservative as some families there. You will never find a school where everyone is just like you. The Heights will never be a mainstream school because of the Opus Dei affiliation, nor does it strive to be. The bottom line is that DS is receiving a quality education, and the school is assisting us in raising him to be a young man of good character. [/quote]
