[quote=Anonymous]Choose the school that’s the best for for your kid where they are now, not potential college outcomes. That said, a school that has a range of students (eg mix of some honors track, on level) who are likely to apply to a range of colleges helps your DC if they are a very strong student. If you send DC to a school where everyone is the same and applies to the same schools it’s going to be more difficult to hook that “dream college.” That said if the academic competition is what suits your kid and they thrive in that type of environment, don’t shy away from it. One of our kids went a more demanding school route for HS and thrived. Other DC chose a less intense school but still took rigorous classes. Both ended up at colleges DCUM would approve of. [/quote]
