He'll be just fine. Thanks for the concern though.

Enjoy your [son's] high school Glory Days.

You're so above it all, yet here you are stalking posts and then posting complete nonsense about your snowflake turning down MIAA programs because he couldn't possibly tear away from his daily public bro-mance?

I think the reality was Junior didn't want to get his mettle tested in the fast lane and the icing for you was not having to figure out how to come up with tuition.

Great job setting the bar high for him lost!!!

It the kid is a top student and lives in an area where the public schools are safe and don’t force liberal bologna down the kids throat, then going public (better access to higher education) is the proper choice, plus being a big fish in a small pond isn’t necessarily bad. Top students don’t need to rely on lax for some college tuition, they will get academic scholarships

Not trying to debate or argue, as there are some good publics out there for certain academic "paths." But aside from those handful of magnet publics, what general public is better than MIAAs academically? Unless you're advocating more for the big fish in small pond idea. These private schools are extremely challenging academically. Much more so than all general publics.

What do you mean by "better access to higher education?"

not true at all for the top students. public school offers a more rigorous academic program for the "AP" outstanding scholar than most private schools.
