[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Visii is too much focused around athletics. It's a much bigger spool than SR. They can lower the bar and get a few recruited athletes in due to the much higher class size.

SR seems or have a more balanced feel between academics and athletics.

Historically SR college placement is better than Visi (minus the few recruited basketball and lady lasers) [/quote]

Yes!  SR is better.  Visi is dumb jocks.  They inflate their college placements.  The girls going to Harvard, Princeton, and Stanford this year are a fluke.  Wait until next year.[/quote]

Oh please, every school has dumb jocks. Yup, even SR, NCS, Holton, Visi...but at all these schools, dumb jocks are in the extreme minority. Pretty sure there have been girls going to Stanford from Visi every year for the past 4 or 5 years. (DD graduated from Visi...and isn't going to Stanford.) Harvard is a new one, but there are usually students going to UPenn, Cornell, Stanford, Notre Dame. Last year one GV student went to Yale. College placements at both Visitation and SR are very good. So are athletics. Visit both schools, talk to the students, and decide which one you like better. The academics and athletics will be just fine at both.[/quote]
