I appreciate the great academics and athletics

U-High’s athletics are great because they recruit people. Before that they were just your average high school. If they stopped recruiting they would go right back to average. They are K-12, but it’s funny how all those athletes never start in kindergarten.

And are the academics actually “great”? There are behind St. Joe, Catholic, Episcopal, and Baton Rouge High. Possibly behind Dunham.

I will say it’s a great bang for you buck.

IDK about academics, but you rub elbows with the right sort of people while paying a lot less than you would at those other schools. As others have said, it's quite the bargain if you can get in by hook or by crook.

So you’re that guy. Every school “recruits”. The Lab school is a terrific place to be for the students and families fortunate enough to get in. The Lab student body demographic used to match the percentage demographic of the greater area. So in your opinion kids from “the hood” shouldn’t be allowed to attend? Is that what you are saying?
