[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a long-winded way of saying that college placement is not the only measure of a school.[/quote] Totally. I'm not going to pretend like college admissions is irrelevant when all is said and done. But what's equally and/or more important to us (whether our kids go public or private for HS) are (1) whether they become intellectually curious or passionate about any particular subject(s); (2) whether they're sufficiently well-prepared to excel academically in undergrad; (3) whether they'll contribute to the campus community at said undergrad, through athletics or other extracurricular activities; (4) whether they've made a strong group of friends (where for some, the loyalty/bond will hopefully be life-long); and (5) whether they're emotionally mature and well-adjusted.[/quote]
