[quote=Anonymous]OP, it sounds like you are waitlisted at STA and your kid is headed to somewhere like Landon. We were in your position a few years ago. We felt like STA was worth it (unique setting, super high academics, and yes prestige) but in our situation, a place like Landon was not. We kept the kid in public and he did really well. We ended up reapplying to to STA and he was admitted on the second try. I will say the only issue is that you say your son is struggling in public due to the pandemic. That is totally understandable but will make admissions at STA or similar difficult if not impossible. There are plenty of kids who have been able to keep-it-together grades wise this year, despite the circumstances. In this case, I would probably go with the back-up school. [/quote]
