[quote=Anonymous]New this year ('08) at STA. We expected a dramatically stronger 'money' vibe at STA but that has been very, very conspicuously absent. Certainly there are some extremely wealthy people here, but it is way below the radar and the school seems to consciously or subconsciously encourage this. The homework at this level has been a challenge -- second only to the organizational demands put on our 11/12 year old. This is a demanding place, but with a little help our boy is doing well by any measure. STA is a special place and I can't help but think it is rooted in the Cathedral and the attendant religious backdrop. There is something bigger than us that pervades the campus... Ultimately, the genius at STA is not in the exclusivity (as most assume) but in the unique culture. [/quote]
