[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does the prestige of a school mean to you? What do you see as the value add? What do you see as the pitfalls? How do you think prestige of a school has/will effect your child?[/quote]

Elite prep boarding school.

The prestige wasn't really a consideration; primary considerations were the academic environment and the type of students, teachers, and administrators at this New England boarding school.

Turned long city commute into extra study or school related activity time.

6 day a week school minimized exposure to alcohol and other substances.

Allowed students to continue & to enhance their work ethic in an environment where academics, being involved in non-academic activities, and education was highly valued.

Great reasoning skills. Superior vocabulary.

Respect for others was lived and practiced daily.

All kids were admitted to great colleges & universities.

To the best of my knowledge, classmates are doing very well in the real world professionally.
