[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Current 4th grader at Mater Dei is going to be in 4th next year at STA. Also heard a Mater Dei 6th grader was transferring. And 3 8th graders from MD are going next year. 4 got in but one is choosing Gonzaga. STA is liking those boys! [/quote] It should be no surprise that STA is accepting these boys. MD families tend to be more hard core religious, but the boys have more in common than differences. They are by and large bright, very athletic focused, polite, and committed to doing good. What is surprising to me is that so many MD boys are applying to STA, rather than the more traditional placement at Prep, Gonzaga and STJ. I wonder if the chatter on the other thread about STA aggressively looking for athletes is true. Regardless, if this is a true trend, there will be some very unhappy families at the aforementioned schools, feeling a sense of betrayal. Maybe not the right word, but will definitely be some hurt feelings.[/quote]
