I have been there but particular thing you are trying to know about the school I may can help

['gusta_balla]

Just wanted to know personal experiences with the school. We are looking at sending our child in hopes of getting her a better education that what the public school system can dish out.

$9-14k per student/per year
Plus another $1k for enrollment/endowment fees
Great education compared to almost any other school in the area, it's very challenging.
Bottom-line is... If you can afford it, its a good education. There may even be a waiting list with certain deadlines to have the necessary paperwork to apply and all. There are other private schools in the area that are a little bit cheaper however.

Yeah, I'm aware of the costs. I read through the website.

I was hoping someone here has/had their kids enrolled and could give first hand experience.

Well, I've had friends growing that went there, my co-workers daughter just graduated from there and is headed to NYC on all kinds of scholarships. It's a good school with high academics. Not sure there is much else to say about it on a message board thread that was fairly vague in retrospect with only a few people responding. If you want to know more, you should set up an appointment with the school itself and walk through it.

Yeah, I already set up an appointment. Like I said, I was just looking for first hand experience from a source other than the school. It was vague to allow everyone's mind to expand, but I guess I set my bar too high.
