People who talk about a school being “too low” view college admissions as some sort of achievement or reward rather than a destination that best suits their child and their child’s passions. It’s a sad mindset. [/quote]

Thank you for this post!  My kid was a lifer at a big 3 and was done with the small class sizes.  He wanted to go to a big state U and have fun.  My son has had a blast in college, first semester.   He currently has a 3.8 gpa. His classes are "easier" than his HS classes.

My son is not special but our private school taught him how to work with Professors, TA's and the like. Taught him to advocate for himself.

On a side note, some people always criticize parents that send their kids to private schools. You do you.  Our investment has paid off well for our son.  I wish the best for you children!

sounds like a great outcome, congrats! My DC had the reverse experience lol - went to a big public HS and had a blast, and then went to a top SLAC (for a sport), and found the private school kid vibe was not his cup of tea.  Transferring to a larger public which presumably will have less of this vibe[/quote]
