Just a couple of small data points from me. Two kids from two different families in my area (middle of nowhere small town within a reasonable half-day drive of Mercersburg…being vague in purpose) went there. I personally know both of them, as they had both been neighborhood friends of my daughter when they were all small. Both of these kids were quite gifted and local options weren’t adequate.One had bussed to our local high school when he was in 7th grade because he was already ready for pre-calc. He was the sort of boy who seemed to excel at everything from a young age…creative writing, math, athletics and social life. The other had attended a gifted magnate day school one county over (an hour’s drive) for most of elementary and middle school. They both thrived at Mercersburg, according to their parents. The first ended up at Duke, and is now in a STEM PhD program somewhere else. The second went to Emory for undergrad and I’m not sure what she is doing now.
