[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Same strugle here. DC went fron HGC to TPMS. Now he wants to go to Blair.  DC is very unlikely to get into top 10 colleges if she attends Blair, but her chance to get into one of the top will be greatly increased if she came back to home school, one of the W schools.  [b]I am dying for her to go to a top school [/b]but don't how to convince her to attend home school.  I don't want to sound shallow because I still want to be her role model.   Any suggestion?[/quote]

Why?

I want my kids to go to schools that are the right fit for them, so that they are positioned for success.  I want the schools to be affordable and for them to graduate without debt, have intellectual peers, for their major departments to be robust, for them to have mentors in those departments, for their schools of choice to have high retention and graduation rates, and for them to have ample internship and work opportunities, as well as good counseling for and opportunities for admission to grad or professional school.

Why is a "top school" your priority for your DC?

For the record, I have two Blair SMAC students.[/quote]
