[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD going to what is regarded as a strong local private next year in 9th Grade. [b]Goal is Ivy League.[/b] What do I need to do/know starting now. Is the college coach type thing worth it? They charge 10-15K for one kid. [/quote] She hasn't even started high school yet and already you've decided that she needs to go to one of 8 very competitive schools? What if she wants a small liberal arts school? Or to go somewhere other than New England? Don't be that kind of parent. Parent the kid you've got -- encourage her to work hard, to do her best, do find something she loves outside the classroom -- and start thinking about specific schools in 11th grade -- with your daughter, not for your daughter.[/quote]
