[quote=Anonymous]My nephew graduated from SAS last May and my daughter is in the process of applying for next fall.  SAS is very different from Lawrenceville (my niece is a Lawrenceville grad) in terms of the school culture.  SAS is all about their ethos and the character of the student applying has a great deal to do with acceptance.  The focus is on supporting your community and far less about individual achievement.  They are looking for students who will be a good fit with their community.  I can see where it might not be the right fit for some kids.  There are no televisions and many of the dorms don't have wifi.  Cell phone use is pretty restricted.  When I've been there during school hours I always find it remarkable that high school students are sitting and talking with each other without a phone to be seen.  Sports is important but they encourage everyone to participate regardless of experience, same with the arts.   I would encourage you to go to their website and watch some of the videos of the head master Tad Roach. He is able to articulate what makes SAS special far better than I am.[/quote]
