[quote=Anonymous]We had two very different kids go through SJC. There is a lot being posted here that was not our experience, but it is a big school and there are likely a lot of different experiences. There were apparently partiers but neither of my kids was part of that scene and didn't seem to feel left out or that it was an overwhelming vibe at the school like an '80s movie! Getting into the higher-level classes requires certain grades/performance on tests - so in that sense it can be hard if your child doesn't meet the threshold on the test/grade. Don't agree that rigor is lacking both kids are at college doing well and were well prepared. I would speak to some current parents about your concerns. It is not run like an independent school where there is a lot of outreach to parents - so that might be off putting to some, but my kids both really were happy with their time there[/quote]
