<p>garw – If you want more suggestions, start a new thread with your question. Right now it is buried in this thread. Take a look at Asheville, St. Andrews and Blair. I am not aware of any boarding schools with a cheerleading squad.</p>

<p>Done…thanks…now I only hope I can find it to read the replies.</p>

<p>There are many. In no particular order, they include:</p>

<p>Choate Rosemary Hall (Connecticut)
Deerfield Academy (Massachusetts)
The Hill School (Pennsylvania)
Hotchkiss School (Connecticut)
Lawrenceville School (New Jersey)
Harvard-Westlake School (California)
Loomis Chaffee (Connecticut)
Sidwell Friends School (District of Columbia)
Phillips Academy (Massachusetts)
Roxbury Latin School (Massachusetts)
Phillips Exeter Academy (New Hampshire)
Norfolk Academy (Virginia)
Horace Mann School (New York)
The Spence School (New York)
Pine Crest School (Florida)</p>

311

<p>That’s a good list, but Sidwell Friends isn’t a boarding school. Also, I feel that you are missing a few very good boarding schools. For example:</p>

<p>Taft School
Milton Academy
Groton School
Episcopal High School</p>

<p>Those are just to name a few others.</p>

312

<p>Spence is a day school in Manhattan. Horace Mann is a day school in Riverdale, NY.</p>

313

<p>st. paul’s school</p>

314

<p>Middlesex, NMH, Concord Academy, Loomis, Hotchkiss, Cate, etc :)</p>

315

<p>My son is applying to multiple elite boarding schools. He is currently in 8th grade at a competitive east coast day school. The schools he is applying to include Exeter, Andover, SPS, Deerfield, Taft, Groton etc. His overall score on the SSAT’s placed him in the 90th percentile. He his recent grades are mostly A’s. He is a good athlete, and is captain of multiple sports teams. He sings in the school chorus etc. What are his chances of getting in?</p>

316

<p>HI Dadofprep!
ubbbbb…I’m really tired and going to log off now
but i don’t like chance people…lol
but he has a good chance :)</p>

318

<p><em>sharp intake of breath</em>NEVERRRRR</p>

319

<p>yeah i guess he has a pretty great chance of getting in. How did his interviews go?</p>

<p>***let me remind you however, that i cannot properly chance your son because i am not an admissions officer, and although I think that he is a good contender, you would have to wait for two more months to find out what they think!</p>

<p>good luck!</p>
