I went to a private St. Louis High School my freshman and sophomore year and had a 4.0. We moved to a North Shore suburb of Chicago my junior year because my mom was transferred, and I went to a public high school (Lake Forest). I graduated from that school with a 3.75 and a 33 ACT. I feel as if I could have gotten A's at CDS just by showing up, but I never worked so hard in all of my life to earn A's at Lake Forest. I laugh when private school students who have never attended public schools feel the need to defend their parents' choice to send them to private schools by putting down public schools. And I laugh when public school students have to defend themselves for attending their local schools. Until you have been to both, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. Until you have, you aren't qualified to comment. But to all of my old friends from St. Louis, I mourn the fact that you think private schools are the only way to go. That just shows me how narrow-minded your education truly is.
