[quote=Anonymous]by hook you mean legacy? but don't you have to meet minimum standards for the university (unless you are a big donor)?

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am trying to find my unicorn school coming from New England. We applied to a few schools, but we were unable to understand school rigor from one tour, especially online ones. We are interested in independent schools for small class sizes, academic rigor, social-emotional growth, and[b] eventually down the line good college matriculation (top 50 US schools is fine with us).[/b] There is a lot of talk about the well-known schools. We understand that Sidwell, GDS, Potomac, and Cathedral schools are in a league. How are SAES, Bullis, and SSFS? I do not understand why Bullis is disliked. We liked the HoS and his vision. Any thoughts would be useful. [/quote]

You may want to follow the college forum on this site at some point, but as things have evolved, the high school matriculation lists for college have more to do with hooks than the high schools themselves. Please pick a school that is good for your kid and family and not because of the college matriculation list.
