We had our first of 2 revisit days and my son left frustrated, sad and confused. He is a 2 sport varsity athlete with one main sport. He is also reclassifying 9th and is an excellent student who likes academics. The 9th grade buddy he was assigned to didn’t play any of the same sports, didn’t do any clubs and seemed to be in all lower/standard classes where the kids and teachers acted bored and uninterested. I would have been fine if the buddy didn’t overlap his sports but to have someone assigned to him that was also on a totally different academic level felt dismissive and makes us wonder if they even have a clue who he is. We are very stressed as this is the school we were hoping he picked but the other school we are visiting Friday is looking better and better. We did send an email to the admissions director and the head of the upper school to try to figure this out.
