[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=sparky]My parents prefer public school at this point however, as they saw me get into Ivies from them. However, they also saw me get stressed out due to the environment there, and might send my sister to a private school when she reaches middle school soon. Since I'm going off to college, my parents are seriously talking about it. [/quote]I hate to say this but tbh, with parents like these, I think there's no way your sister doesn't end up stressed out. I wager that it's the parents, not the school.[/quote] agree. the parents and sister need to get better informed. Boarding schools don't give full rides to ESOL "highly capable" students. It is merit and money based so if sis isn't grinding right now, she won't get in. If she is hard working, goal oriented, go for a URM ESOL spot at a local day school that gives lots of fin aid to such students. [/quote]
