[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not a pressure cooker is code for mediocre. [/quote] That’s cute. Pressure cooker means the atmosphere is such that the majority of kids are gunning for the same goal. Taking as many AP or honors classes as possible, T25 and Ivy or bust mentality. That’s not the case at FH. There are a a group of kids that are exceedingly smart. Taking high level classes early on and are on that path of the most rigorous all the time. A school full of this type of kid would be a pressure cooker. There are a good number of these kids there but that is balanced with ‘regular’ kids, artsy kids, athletic kids, etc. There’s space for growth and different interests. To you that may equate to mediocre but to me, Flint Hill walks the talk with regards to developing teenage minds and mental health. [/quote]
