Lol. A parent from Kent called and in that conversation snorted at Choate saying it was “too girly” for a boy. That certainly left an impression.
Exeter was sort of impersonal. Hotchkiss was bland. Groton was awesome, with a super personal acceptance, cool activities very personal. Choate was nice. George was nice. SweetBoy loved everything Groton. But the curriculum was just a bit too inflexible and we worried it was too small for a big personality. And Choate had several special things he wanted.
Our favorite gifts were tshirts by a mile although the water bottle from Exeter was very nice and is in regular rotation.
Oh and the fireworks in emails were fun.
Everything was virtually last year. No visits.
