[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a DD at Visi and a younger son who will apply to high school in a few years. I originally thought Gonzaga would be a great place for him but after observing the boys who go to Gonzaga (I work down the street from the school), am not sure it would be a good fit. The boys seem a little too confidence/bordering on arrogance, which is just not an attractive trait to me (although it clearly appears to be to my DD and her friends). [b]Is St. Anselm’s Abbey different?[/b][/quote]

Yes it is, boo.  Very different.  Try the dcum search function - it's been discussed in 1.3 trillion previous threads here.

It comes down to what would be the best fit for your son and what [b]HE[/b] wants.

Well, parents ARE paying so not quite open and shut. They said, SAA seems like the boys have more of a quiet confidence, perhaps more substance when it comes to personality. Gonzaga is in your face vs. SAA quiet confidence makes a different statement. [/quote]

Substance when it comes to personality?  Did you really type that?  Gonzaga has close to 1,000 kids. Perhaps, the ones you are seeing have that swagger/confidence. They will, of course, be the ones that stand out to you. Give me a break if you think every boy, all 1,000 of them, are the same.  Both of my GZ kids were shy, extremely modest and very humble. They did hours upon hours of community service.  Most of their GZ friends and classmates were similar to them.

I have to think this is the same troll that has been on a roll lately.  Quite a few 'observations' of GZ students lately. [/quote]
