[quote=Anonymous]I have a freshman college and a junior at Churchill.

I think the school prepared them for college. They are doing well at a T30 school.  They made dean’s list both semesters. Many above average kids do not get into UMD. Many end up at Ohio State, Penn State, VTech, etc.

Churchill is pretty competitive.  Lots of Asian and Indian striving for Ivy League schools.  Everyone takes SAT prep courses and has a college advisor.

Kids drive around in new Teslas, Mercedes and BMWs. Many kids take extended vacations.

There are kids who feel entitled to good grades, special treatment.

Kids vape in the bathrooms, smoke pot, and gambling is an issue. Alcohol is the same as 25 years ago. They still do it and think it’s cool. Kids are over the top with homecoming and prom, renting buses and going to the monuments for instagram photos.

Kids get in trouble but their parents can afford attorneys. Kids do not suffer consequences.

My kid in college is doing well. My junior is also doing well.  I think the school is ok. If I had to do it all over again, I’m on the fence. I think most teachers are good. The environment can be toxic but you have to make sure your kid does not fall into the wrong groups.
