[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]STA upper school academics are awesome: they dig deep into the material but not in a way that tears the boys down or makes them feel like it's impossible to succeed[/b]. My son joined the class in 9th grade and we have been very happy. He is works very hard but is able to do well when he puts in the time. All the STA grads we know are thriving in top college programs including those who are in rigorous STEM majors at Ivies and similar. [/quote] Have to disagree with you. Depends on the teachers they get. STA has a core cadre of excellent teachers. They also have bad ones in the mix. Some STA teachers rejoice in feeding their own egos by refusing to give As no matter how brilliant the students or how superb their work. They delight in tearing the boys down. There are others who test on material they didn’t teach because they recycle tests from previous years. Still others are just bad teachers.[/quote]
