[quote=Anonymous]I don't know how it is "considered" by other people, and exactly what other people mean by "pressure cooker." But my child is in high school at Maret and it does not seem overly pressured to me. My child does work relatively hard, but never stays up late into the evening working. I get a sense that there is some competition among the high-academic kids, but all very friendly. Some kids' greatest strengths are in non-academic aspects of school life, and that seems to be fine. (Then again, my general sense is that most kids who feel "pressure cooked" in high school are getting most pressure from their parents.)[/quote]
