[quote=Anonymous]If it has any national reputation, which is debatable, it’s just for being expensive and not particularly rigorous. It’s one of those schools where well-off families send their kids who deserve more than a lousy old public school but couldn’t actually swing admission into a rigorous academic program… maybe like Elon or High Point. The only rationale I can think of is that these folks believe private always equals rigorous — either that or they just want their kid to rub elbows with other lacrosse enthusiasts who summer in the Outer Banks. There’s no question most of the best schools in the US are private, but not every private school is the same. Save your money and go with a nationally known state flagship if your kid can’t manage a more competitive place. [/quote]
