[quote=Anonymous]My daughter is at AHC and her friends are at Visi.  There are pros and cons to both. My daughter has enjoyed taking AP classes as a sophomore which her friends were not allowed to do at visitation.  She will begin the full IB program next year which appears fantastic.  She works hard, is in the Scholars program and gets great grades.  She is also able to play two sports and maintain a full schedule in an outside activity she has been doing for years.  The key to that is their 2 day rotating schedule.  They have longer classes and absolutely get enough homework for both days but it gives her more time to schedule her commitments.  Sure there are girls there who are not as academically focused, but my daughter is very challenged and really enjoys the variety of people there.  It does not seem as cookie-cutter affluent as Visi.  As a parent I have been very impressed by the school in terms of their Catholic identity and discipline.

I think AHC is under-rated.  There is certainly a place for the academic minded girl, as well as the not so strong student. That's important too and those girls tend to be overlooked in the cut-throat admissions process.[/quote]
