[quote=Anonymous]DD13 would really like to attend a specific private all-girls HS. I'm open to it, and believe she would be admitted, but it depends on how much FA we get: we simply cannot afford full freight. Commute is also an obstacle. Our local public HS is very good and DD has friends headed there. I don't want her to think it is a "disappointing" option. But, I can see advantages to the private school and agree it would be a more comfortable environment for her specific personality. Should I let her apply and get her hopes up? Or decide that it just doesn't work for our family and not put her through the up and down of applying, only to get in with a FA package that is still too much for us to take on? [/quote]
