[quote=Anonymous]We would have considered the TP program, but was accepted at Eastern for our daughter and that seemed not worth it. The little bit of enhanced rigger to pull a child out of where they were already established with a similar baked in peer group compounded with a tough commute everyday. You really have to analyze what you hope to build on. While walking Eastern we were reminded that we specifically opted to avoid schools like that so it didn’t make sense to opt back in and pay a logistics premium for the privilege. TP might be better but if your home school is high achieving and your kid is well acclimated I would posture why. Just those hours of commuting every day could be spent doing extracurriculars which will pay greater dividends towards most college acceptances. If your kid is purely Academic and could use a social reset (which many could during middle school) then try it for a year and reassess.[/quote]
