[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Calvert Hall and Loyola are good if you want a catholic school or if your alternative is a performing Baltimore public. Neither is going to offer a better education than a Howard county public. The class sizes aren’t going to be smaller.[/quote] I disagree. My neighbors lived in Howard County before moving to Baltimore County. Her kids were unprepared for college in the following ways- no idea how to take notes, were allowed retakes in HS whereas they couldn’t do that in college, no idea that deadlines weren’t flexible, couldn’t write. She spent a lot of money on writing tutors for both because they basically had to start from the beginning. One nearly failed out because he wasn’t used to handing in work by a deadline. He was on academic probation. The other one needed a tutor in note taking since she was always provided notes by the teachers. [/quote]
