[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again, if you're applying to private schools for a specific college outcome, you're delusional and kidding yourself. That's on you, not the school. [/quote] I would word this differently. Families should chose private school for the community, the character development, development of critical thinking skills and the opportunity for students to gain close and meaningful relationships with teacher-mentors. It has never occurred to me that my child would have a better college outcome because of where he attended high school. Although I wouldn't use the word delusional, I do think that parents who chose private expecting a certain college outcome are misguided. [/quote]
