[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another difference between Herndon and Langley.  Seniors at Langley have the option to do Langley Leap during their senior year.

an exclusive set of top students will be selected for internship programs.

Selection of Students: A senior is eligible for the Langley Leap Senior Internships if she/he meets ALL of the following criteria. A maximum of 100 students will be selected in the year.  They will be not be in school and excused from all school work.

The rest of the bottom feeders will not participate and will remain in class while your star student will get to work at your neighbor's daddy's firm for 10 days.  The bottom feeders will be reminded everyday why they are bottom feeders and destined to their natural place in society.

I don't think Herndon provides the opportunity to display and share the over achievements of your child like Langley does.

Brought to you by a proud Langley parent.

Not at Langley, but here's the information I found about this.  It doesn't sound like a terrible idea since school work for seniors is largely complete by the time these internships commence.   Nor does having a minimum 2.75 GPA exactly scream over-achievement.
