[quote=Anonymous]Private Catholic HS, non-parish. So glad we did it for my kids. Peer group is so wholesome. My younger one had the friends turning to vaping, trouble, etc in public 8th- many were athletes too. He lost touch immediately. He no longer was embarrassed to embrace being a “smart kid” that cared about school. None of his friends drink, drug. They are all motivated, stay out of trouble. The families are all invested in the kids. “A village” Senior now. Older one in college. My older kid had a great group from public he’s still friends with—they became divided among different private and public HS but have been close since kindergarten. We were lucky there. Younger one had a lot of friends we liked move out of the area by middle school and the group left were less supervised, more into trouble so the move to private made an incredible difference for him. He is much happier too—less self-conscious. Bonus for the dress code too. [/quote]
