| It is a public school in a serving some low income students, many middle class and some upper middle class students. School population is about 1400. About 70% of the graduating seniors go onto college of some sort. A good majority of the students would attend college in Ohio or Michigan - assorted state and private schools. The top 5 seniors of last year (one of who was my D!) went onto Ohio State, Miami, U of Mich and my D at a small private Ohio school. An occasional Ivy. Honestly, in my D's class case at least, it's not that students weren't selected to "prestigious" schools, they just didn't choose to apply.
He is enjoying reading your responses so far...please anyone else has 2 cents, come forth!!! Tonight he emailed the director of curriculum and instruction for the school system to get his opinion....each high school I believe makes it's own policy here... |
