[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Back to the original question. Yes, it is worth it. Many people go without knowing others who are going. It is a great program and a good school.[/quote] Alum back, 30 years out - it's worth it if you live close by. If you don't, ask yourself the following? a) is your kid is so off the charts smart that they need such rigor and a 45-60 min daily bus-ride or b) Are you not able/willing to support your child academically at their home school? If the answer to either is yes, then by all means, TPMS/Eastern/Blair are probably worth it. But if not, please don't kid yourself that it's as important as people make it out to be. [/quote] Agree! It's a wonderful program that many would benefit from; however, some will be fine regardless and if it involves long commutes and your home school is decent you may want to think long and hard. For others, who may not get outside enrichment, this program can be life-changing.[/quote]
