Lacrosse is a small part of the decision in sending your child to a private/prep school. To be sure there are fine public schools but overall private/preps offer your child a competitive advantage academically. Chaminade happens to be a 1st rate academic institution and you cant knock anyone for wanting to send their kid there, lacrosse or no lacrosse, they just happen to also have an outstanding lacrosse program as well.



It's more of a fact that the private school parents will fork over the money to pay for an Ivy League school. That is why they get more kids. Not that their kids are smarter from the private school education
