[quote=Anonymous]I totally sympathize with not wanting your kids in the pressure cooker school, but it sounds like all of the factors add up in favor of moving. You can do a lot to shield them from the pressures and make sure they have a balanced high school experience. I wouldn't worry too much about the "big fish/small fish" aspect. That's too much pressure! Pick the school and neighborhood that fits best now with your lives; don't do everything based on some (slight, if any) advantage on college applications. If you do that, you're just playing in to the whole pressure cooker! [/quote]
