[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a parent of a child who will be in this process in a few years, I wish the Catholic grade schools would report out on their HSPT results. Or maybe the dioceses could do this by school averages.

Not looking for results by child, of course, but understanding if kids at our school performed well or below average, etc., would be useful information. It isn't as helpful to look at high school acceptances from our 8th-grade graduating class unless you know who has legacy, who is a recruited athlete, etc.[/quote]

There’s no advantage for the school to share that info.

Plus, don’t all the 8th graders from catholic schools make it into some catholic high school (at least those who want to go to a catholic hs)?

How many grads have you encountered who didn’t land somewhere?

Anyway, my public school kid with a crummy HSPT score made into a catholic high school. Not a legacy. Had straight As in public middle school (which isn’t a flex), and played a sport decently well (but not enough to get recruited). [/quote]
