[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For lower school admissions, do you really think the admissions staff focuses on whether an applicant is excelling at sports (travel team, awards)?[/quote] AT STA? You are joking? You can make a focused and smart kid an athlete, and STA does. You can not make a good dribbler a scholar. STA looks for bright kids with a spark. Period. Code cracked. The 'bright' isn't negotiable, and is necessary but insufficient. Then they need a spark (not a 'hook'). It could be art, athletics, music. Those are the 'hooks'. Most of these boys usually have talents in ALL areas, and truly excel at 2 or 3 in HS.[/quote]
