[quote=Anonymous]I sent one to GZ and one to GC - both boys. Both different kids. Both have thrived. The community at GC is wayyyyy more welcoming. GZ left me feeling inadequate and like I was trying to keep up with the Joneses. It was very insular and felt like I could see the same faces, yet people would act like we’d never met. GC folks are much more down to earth and not concerned with social climbing.

Both of my students have been successful at each school, but there’s no denying GZ is more rigorous. We have family that has taught at both schools and attended both, as well. We are huge supporters of both schools.

GC is very appealing to those of us in MoCo, especially upper MoCo. My older son commuted an hour each way. My younger son wasn’t up for that. It doesn’t make our students less likely to get into a great college bc they didn’t choose the hour plus commute. GC is placing kids in top colleges, as well, and has a strong athletic program for men and women.

My son from GC will graduate with a higher GPA than my Gonzaga son. It will open more doors for him to apply to other colleges his brother couldn’t. The path for each family and child is different and people on this board need to stop worrying about stepping on someone to try to get to the top. [/quote]
