[quote=Anonymous][quote]Not a disgruntled, but current STA parent here. Eyes are wide-open now. Definitely will not stay beyond 8th grade. Academic excellence? If you say so. Exmissions probably equal connections.[/quote] This is the sober reality today for many of the elite private secondary schools. As Beauvoir is to STA and NCS today, so too were many of these prep schools to the "Ivies, yesterday". These schools remain academically excellent but "Ivy" exmission is no longer a guarantee (but for the legacies and connected). All the rest must compete. [/quote]
