[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Amusing as it is, sometimes I wonder how many people on this forum are actual adults working in the real world of super high achieving Washington D.C. If you are -- look around you. Smart, successful people come in every variety, from every background, every type of school -- and in fact the one thing they generally have in common is their natural, organic, God-given excellence, which can't be instilled by a "Big 3" or the Ivy League or psychos mom debating Holton vs NCS. In other words, yes, getting into a better college is a stupid reason to go to a top private school. It's all about personal development. Which you can achieve just as easily at the University of Vermont.[/quote]

For those of you who work in the private sector did your CEO come from HYP?  Ours came from Perdue I think.  OP, I write this though I have lots of anxiety about how my kids turn out,  I think being an engaged parent is far more important in K-12 than  where they go though I wouldn't recommend Ballou:).[/quote]
