[quote=Anonymous]If your child is an "A" student taking honors courses at a parish school with good test scores and extra-curriculars then there is no reason why they can not move on to a top independent private school such as STA, NCS, or Sidwell. They are clearly just as smart, competitive, and qualified as any other applicant. It is sad how people discriminate against Catholics and the Catholic school system on this board. In some places, a Catholic school is held in the highest regard. I think there is definitely a subset of people on this board who are insecure about how much money they are spending on their big bucks private education and wondering if it is truly worth the difference ($35-$42K vs. $9K-$12K). There are also people who are jealous that Catholic families (and Catholic friendly families) have the option of a good education at a much lesser price. [/quote]
