[quote=Anonymous][quote=MOCOS][quote=Anonymous]What are his other options? Why does he like Prep?[/quote] Other options are Gonzaga, Landon. He is a relatively quiet kid and did not think the GZ vibe is a good fit for him. Impressed with Landon but heard its academics is pretty challenging. Was hoping GP is just at the right level, where the kids will get pushed, but not too much. Again, he is up for challenges, but want to avoid pressure cooker. [/quote] Current parent here. Prep is extremely challenging, but worth it in the end. Depending on where your son went to middle school and how he manages his time, it could feel like he's going from middle school to mini college. All of the classes are rigorous and your son will be very prepared for any university he attends. On the contrary, the boys seem to love it. They're really supportive of each other and I personally believe it was the best decision for our son. [/quote]
