[quote=Anonymous]DH went to Milton. He grew up in Manhattan and attended a gifted public school. He hated it... he was craving life outside the concrete jungle and started the boarding school application process himself before his parents begrudgingly agreed to consider it. It was an incredible experience for him and the elite boarding schools really do have a solid connection to the Ivys and Top 25. DH was waitlisted at a school that Milton thought was a good fit for him. After a phone call, poof, he was in. For us, boarding is a possibility but the kids will have to REALLY want it for themselves. Zero pressure from us. DH says that the kids who wanted to be there did well. The kids who were forced had all sorts of issues.[/quote]
