[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, they should build a couple more SHSAT schools that are geographically convenient to places that have lots of high-scoring kids; say another one in Queens (Flushing or Jackson Heights, maybe) and one in Harlem to cover upper Manhattan. In addition to getting kids more sleep, this would take some pressure off of Stuy and Bronx Science: given the choice between going to the 8th best specialized high school that's 15 minutes from your house or the 2nd best one that's an hour, a lot of families will choose the former.[/quote] I like this idea. We are new to private school after my DD completed public elementary, and we got email about Regis. Ours is not a religious school but there was apparently a tragedy earlier in the year, before we joined. I think my husband and I have been very naive about some of the pressure the kids feel and really are under at every competitive (whatever the context) school.[/quote]
