[quote=Anonymous]I'm not going to say anymore on the matter beyond this:

I think it's rather funny that you assume moms and dads are unbiased when it comes to a $30,000 annual investment and the reputation of their child's school.  Some parents love STA.  Some are ambivalent.  Some can't wait to kid their kids out.  And many range somewhere in between those endpoints.  Heck, I know a number of families where one parent really likes the school and the other parent really doesn't.  I even know one family where their disagreement about the school played a notable role in their divorce.  I think people affiliated with the school are automatically biased.

Whoever said I was or wasn't affiliated with the school myself?  Whoever said I couln't be biased and have facts?  As a matter of fact, I have a tremendous amount of factual information.  It's my interpretation of that information that is biased -- as almost anyone's is to some degree or another.

I wish the prospective STA parent the best of luck in their quest for "the facts."

I'd say more, but I just implicitly agreed with a person I respect a whole heckuva lot that I wouldn't engage in an argument abou STA's merits and flaws on this board.  But if I ever fully dove into one, I can guarantee that there would be a whole lot of facts. :)
