[quote=Anonymous]Yes. The teacher will make or break your application. And you can't switch subject teachers. We asked last year if we could use the history teacher instead of ELA (because the ELA teacher had been out for months) and we were told by Walls that this wasn't possible. Kid (despite a 4.0---not even an A minus grade in any quarter) and being a well-behaved girl did not get an interview. The private schools were all fine with using the history teacher in leu of English and she got into all that she applied to. Is now attending a private on aid. [/quote]
