Once you get past a certain point, it's up to the student. I've seen some dumb shits graduate from Jesuit and Newman.

Mt Carmel is more deserving than Ursuline from what I’ve heard. Maybe over Dominican as well

You’re 100% correct. I just thought about that after I hit submit.

Forgot Mt. Carmel. There is no tangible difference.

I’m a STM alum and would put Newman over St. Martin’s all day long
In Lafayette, Episcopal School of Acadiana offers an amazing education for those who are ballers ...$20,000 per year

Public—southwest LA. Barbe, Sulphur, and Sam Houston all seem to do a good job at having different tracts for different students. Honors/AP courses for the smart kids, regular classes for the average, shop classes (with actual welding experience) for the vocational/not going to college kids.

I think that’s what a high school should be.
