[quote=Anonymous][quote=kmhy62]DD is considering both but is leaning towards Holy Cross. She is a strong student but is put off by the stories she hears about grade deflation and endless hours of homework at Visi. She certainly is a hard worker and excels academically but also is an athlete. A number of people (current teachers & parents of HS girls) say Visi is unnecessarily stressful and not worth it compared to Holy Cross. I know she loved the thought of Visi before she got this feedback. Any insight? [/quote] We had heard some similar stories about Visi and were leaning towards our DD going to a large, less expensive, co-ed parochial HS near our home. But our daughter (a smart two-sport athlete) loved her two shadow days at Visi. And once we carefully compared the academic resources available at Visi versus the resources at our large local parochial HS, we were convinced that she would receive a much better education at Visi.
