[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you so much, SJC parents! Really helpful to know that my DS would still get a great education even if he is not in the Scholars program. I was really impressed with the open house yesterday. I met students, parents, teachers, and coaches. What a wonderful opportunity to see all the school has to offer. I spoke with so many teachers -- that really made the difference for me. [/quote] OP, my DD graduated from SJC in spring 2021. She had excellent outcomes with her college applications. She was a solid A-B student and was not interested in taking any AP classes although SJC has plenty. Neither I nor DH pushed her to take the APs. She still got into great colleges with merit aid. The teachers at SJC are very caring and the college counseling is superb. Even during the pandemic, the college counselors were on top of things with recommendations and grade reports. DD had a very good experience academically and socially at SJC. She did play a varsity sport all four years but like other PPs have stated, a non-sporty student will find lots of clubs and non-sports activities to engage in. It was well worth the money. [/quote]
