[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lax players or basketball players who can also play football are especially coveted.  Send in a highlight tape with your application.  I kid you not.  Worked for us.  [/quote]

I was waitlisted last school year. I was told we should try again this admission season but I will not.  I am familiar with two of the last bunch of kids admitted last admission cycle. Those kids are excellent students with great scores and grades. They are also great athletes, football, basketball, lacrosse. STA is moving into that direction. The question is, will they be able keep them? These kids have a lot to offer, and from what I’ve seeing of the coaching environment, I am not sure. I for one, will not reapply. [/quote]

We don’t want the school changed. One class already was negatively impacted by bringing in some of these students that seemed to be “older” and into things their classmates weren’t into yet. If the school culture changes they could also lose current families that liked thing culture for what is is now. Who is mandating these changes? [/quote]
