[quote=Anonymous]I debate between academic rigor and school/life balance. Kid is super smart and self-motivated, so I think he would do well at Banneker and able to keep up with the extensive coursework/homework. But I worry about life outside of school. He does club sports (which he's been a member of for some time) and likes to spend time with his friends. J-R (in bound) is a good school, but in my view is more of a "traditional" high school and not as challenging as Banneker. Would you opt to send your child to Banneker knowing they would get a great education and equipped for college, or go with J-R which is good but not as rigorous, but gives him more time to do things he enjoys outside of school. I've been going in circles so looking for outside opinions. [/quote]
