The oldest, stepchild graduated from Georgia Tech With honors

My oldest child graduated in 3 1/2 years from LSU with a 3.85

Youngest stepchild presently at LSU in honors program carrying a 4.0 average

My youngest child is graduating high school with a 3.75 and has completed three college level courses with a partial academic scholarship to LSU.

I will qualify all of the above by saying I was a 2.0 average at best so they did not get it from me. Their mothers are very smart and sorry no pics.

Well done and be proud. As an East Baton Rouge Parish public school graduate in the late 70's and an LSU mid 80's with little help and the current father of a very bright, private school daughter, who will go wherever she wants on if not a free ride a ride close to it, I wish you well.

To those haters/complainers it's not a bad thing for private or public. It's what you have made of either. It is a parent that has sacrificed and is proud. And he deserves it.

Outstanding and congratulations for your sacrifices..people dont understand in private schools, it's not just the money, the kids and the parents are committing to a tremendous amount of time and effort sacrifices to keep up with what is usually a higher difficulty of classes.

Let's see where the a-hole is that said you "fell for the private school trap".
