[quote=Anonymous]This forum cracks me up. The thought that all "average" kids congregate in one school is beyond ignorant. 4 "average" girls from my DD's schools got into Visi..average (to use your word) academically, but heavy legacies. There are also many kids at 3-12 schools like Stone Ridge and Holton that got in when they were in elementary school, but are what you would probably consider "average" students. So to say that only "average" kids go to St. John's is, I think, insulting to the kids that go there (and no, I don't have a kid there, but know a number of really nice kids that are current students.) After watching my DD's class go through this highschool selection craziness over the past few months, I find it mildly entertaining. Btw, 5 kids from our school applied to the Scholars Program at St. John's and only 1 got in. These parents that sit on the sidelines and define kids by the schools they go to are just sad. [/quote]
