[quote=Anonymous]Most top students who truly love learning go to a school that has great, interesting, unique class offerings, and don't worry about gaming some manner of college admissions years from now when -- frankly -- who knows what any particular college will be looking for. For example, skills at girls ice hockey and golf are good now - in 2018, colleges may prefer female ice skaters. Harvard recently opened a new engineering college and Princeton just started an initiative to attract female engineering students. By 2018, they may be looking for thespians. Your kid should go to where they will be challenged every day and also enjoy it. For our DC that is TJ. I personally don't care if DC goes to community college after HS (I started there) but I do care that DC learns in HS. [/quote]
