[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Believe it or not, TJ admissions do not validate whether a school is up to par or not- although on this site, that seems to be the only measure of a school’s worth.  It is true that many Nysmith kids choose private high school, but I have never heard that it is for safety reasons - so that is not being used as an “excuse” just because one person may have heard it from a Nysmith parent.  Lots of Nysmith kids also go to public high school, so there is no general feeing that public school is unsafe.

To a separate poster, no one ever said that 20 were admitted this year, that is just an estimate of how many made it to the second round, because that is all the info there is so far this year.  What is so hard to understand about that?   It is a very high percentage of those who applied.  I would think that any school would be happy with those interim results.   We won’t know until Friday how many got it in, but at least some of those 20 (whether admitted or not), will go to private school anyway, deposits have been made and sweatshirts bought, so it is somewhat moot.

Many great kids go to Nysmith and have gotten a lot out of their education.  If it is not your thing, fine.  Everyone should like their choice.  But there’s no reason to be rude.  [/quote]

+10. As a Nysmith parent I agree. I see so much of hatred against the school and that is unnecessary. Be happy for your kid wherever he is, and do not bash up other schools/kids.[/quote]
