[quote=Anonymous]How did you pick a school without realizing that the students have "more freedom to come and go, meet up and go elsewhere?" Some high schoolers are ready for more independence and autonomy just as some are more ready for advanced academic work than others. If you're uncomfortable with a setting like that in a private school, the solution is just to not send your children there. I don't know what kind of family you have, but its pretty hard not to be "exposed to alcohol in HS." Have you ever watched the commercials during a football or baseball game? Do you really think the fratty/sporty religious schools don't have a binge drinking culture? Parents in all kinds of schools do stupid things like provide alcohol to their children. But, it is legal to furnish alcohol in a private residence to minors in both Maryland and Virginia. [/quote]
