[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Should we gamble on Lowell even though it doesn't have an Upper School? Does it have any clout with the better Upper Schools? Is it considered prestigious? It might end up being our only private school option and we're worried about what comes next. We are full pay and wonder if we'd be spending all that money for nothing.[/quote] So your goal for private school is admission to a prestigious high school? It's funny, people always go on and on about how they'd pay all that money for private school because the education is so much better and it's valuable in itself. It's always refreshing when people admit the truth. I mean, Lowell is well-regarded, but there are no guarantees. If you'll feel like you wasted your money if your kid doesn't get into Sidwell for HS, then you're probably better off sending your kid to public school.[/quote]
