[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Impressive?  Looks like they are only sending about 5 of 160 to Ivies.[/quote]

Class size is 90-95 per grade

Love it when a statistics warrior comes on here with no real facts!! [/quote]

+100. Not sure how many in class of 2025 but definitely less than 100. 5 Ivies seems pretty impressive for a citywide lottery school. And lots of kids are deciding on financial aid so perhaps more are getting in but can't attend. But regardless, the kids graduating from Latin are kind, compassionate, thoughtful human beings which is way more important than what college one attends. [/quote]

The few Latin kids getting into T10 schools would have done fine at any school.  There are outliers everywhere.  Parents are certainly supplementing all the time.

All Latin kids are "kind, compassionate, thoughtful human beings"?  You realize that Latin is a 100% lottery school, right?

The point is that Latin is just not that good.  Here are some stats on Latin 2nd St:

-25% never take an AP exam
-43% never pass a single AP exam
-42% are not proficient in reading
-11% do not graduate

I'm sorry you have a terrible waitlist number for Latin.  [/quote]

Didn’t list Latin at all—not with those numbers.[/quote]

Did it occur to you that maybe this thread is not for you, then?[/quote]
