[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have met HA alums who claim their high school experience consisted of late nights, burnout, and depression due to the "pressure cooker" nature of the school. I have also heard from current/past students and their families who say that the workload, content, etc is incredibly manageable and have plenty of free time outside of academics. Does anyone know why this is? Or what type of girls will have an easier time? [/quote] The students who have balanced lives are the ones that use their time wisely. If they can knock out 2~3 classes worth of homework in school by using study halls and time before or after sports, the evenings are more than manageable. Teens procrastinate by and large but efficiency is key. I don’t think this is exclusive to Holton; I think every well rounded student is time efficient. Having the extra time then allows extracurriculars, sports, jobs, fun with with friends. Every one of my dd friends that is (relatively) happy and had great college application results is like this.[/quote]
