Would you pick a different high school?

<p>My youngest is in a school that only graduated its first class in June. There are no stats about where prior classes matriculated. There are no official AP classes, though it’s possible to work with faculty independently. The school sent seniors to some pretty selective colleges but more than that, had all of the seniors in internships at places like our internationally known cancer research institute. The school just won a national award for its math program, competing against the likes of Boston Latin. </p>

<p>College prep, including parental involvement, is required. It ALSO develops the whole child AND works with kids who need extra help, AND specifically works to get more kids of color into college and beyond. </p>

<p>I would have put all three of my kids there had it existed when my older two were in school. My youngest left her previous school mid-year into 7th grade and doesn’t regret it for a second. Neither do we.</p>
