Many (not all) publics are going downhill. Especially with the woke nonsense being taught, violence, teachers getting disrespected, etc. etc. Parents that may have never thought about sending their kids to private schools are now strongly considering it.
From a lacrosse perspective, agree with the notion that the club is more important than the high school. The lacrosse is better in the private school leagues, but kids can certainly get into good schools going to a public.
I would not send my kid to a private for lacrosse, more for the education.
Competition is the best in IAAM. You could win a national championship using only IAAM players.
Who comes ip with this? The Stat Guy/Rain Man from Heros's Green? That guy is a next level toll.
I agree with the comment above when it comes to lacrosse. There is great talent in public schools, outside of md/Long Island, etc… but there is a reason that the UNC coach moved her daughter to play in IAAM from North Carolina. They are the only conference to use college rules, and huge amount(not all) of the best players in college came from the IAAM. This has led to the best coaches as well
