[quote=Anonymous]I have stories from friends and family members about the difference in academic preparation for high school at the "big 3 or 5" schools as it relates to the lifers versus the kids that transfer in at the 9th grade. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? All the frenzy over getting kids into a K-12 school at the outset, when in actuality, it might be smarter to let them start somewhere else -- anywhere else, develop strong academic work habits and then transfer to one of the highly competitive schools for high school and outperform the lifers! Thoughts?![/quote]
