[quote=Anonymous]I think in some cases the teachers are unaware of the competition to get into elite colleges these days. It's rare for my kids to have teachers who have high school age kids. They have teachers whose kids are long grown, childless by choice, young teachers with young kids, and young teachers (unmarried or no kids). The few that have high school age kids usually have kids at the top of the class but who are not applying to elite schools. In general, in my school district, the teachers do not come from the most nationally prominent schools in our state. So, they are just insulated from the stress.[/quote]
