个人观点哈，Lancaster更适合文科强一点的孩子。但加州的好学校上Standard 等加州牛校相对较容易。

以下学校都是以艺术类出名的，供参考：Idyllwild Arts Academy, Design & Architecture Senior High School, Walnut Hill School for the Arts, Interlochen Arts Academy, L.A. County High School for the Arts, the Chicago Academy for the Arts, New World School of the Arts,

都是很不错的学校。感觉Tower Hill （特拉华）和 Ranney （新泽西）比较而言更好些。另外两所也很不错，是Catholic 学校。最后一所在明尼苏达州。

这个学校特别好，因此要求也很高。上网看了下往年的ISEE要求，四个科目都需要90%以上才比较有把握。

Friends Central是一所Quaker 贵格学校，源于宗教，虽已淡化，但仍有一定的宗教影响。下面是另一所Quaker学校给家长手册中的简单介绍，也许有一定的参考价值。

Quakerism was founded in the 1650’s by George Fox, who believed in the sanctity of all human life, and who lived his faith by taking direct action to protect and enhance the lives of others. Below are the key principles of Quakerism that emerged from this belief and tradition of action.
These principles are interwoven in the everyday life of Quaker schools:
Friends (Quakers) believe that a measure of the Divine Spirit, or “that of God,” or an “Inner Light” or “Spirit,” resides within every individual. Springing from this conviction, we live with love and respect for all persons and all creation. • Thus, we believe that every human life is sacred and should be treated with equal respect and dignity, and that all conflicts should be settled in a non‐violent and peaceful manner.
Quakers believe that cooperation rather than competition should be the dominant theme in human interactions. This does not mean that Quakers do not compete. However, it does mean that we emphasize good sportsmanship rather than a “win at all cost” approach.
Quakers believe that discerning how to live our life is best done in community with others. • We value simplicity because we feel that a cluttered life can distract us from our connection with others and the Spirit or Inner Light.
We believe that everyone is capable of a direct and personal relationship with God, and we strive to be open to continuing revelation. • We worship in silence in order to be open to this direct divine guidance and a deeper understanding of the world. Participants in Meeting for Worship may feel led by the Spirit to speak out of the silence.
The spirit of Quakerism has deep respect for the religious traditions of each individual, encourages community members to respect differences in cultural backgrounds and religious beliefs, and does not seek to proselytize or convert others. Community members are encouraged to use silent Meeting for Worship as a period for contemplation based on their own religious traditions.
Our philosophy encourages curiosity about the world and the entire universe in which we live. • Quakers believe that, because we all have “that of God within”, a greater Truth is accessible through a process of continuing revelation. This belief led to the practice of posing queries, or deep searching questions, rather than adhering to a credo statement or doctrine. Thus, many Quaker Meetings follow a practice of carefully considering and recording their collective response to a series of queries. By logical extension Quakers have adopted the following principles of teaching and learning: continuous inquiry, reflection, collaboration, service, and respect, with teachers as partners and facilitators in the learning process.
Following long Quaker tradition, we believe in experiential learning that includes both the heart and the mind. We know that nurturing the mind while caring for the heart develops people who are grounded in reality and who possess a strong moral compass.

一般没有必要。

让孩子自己安静地回顾一下自己的整体情况和自己的特点，可以列出一个提纲，包括自己的成长经历中的亮点（具体的成绩、挫折、感动、痛苦），自己的梦想和理想（最好具体化）以及为什么有这些想法，未来的人生设计（要基于实际情况），自己有哪些骄傲的特长或坚持不懈的努力，为什么值得一提。

有没有机会都需要尽全力试一试，不试肯定没机会。祝好运！

学校网上信息很清楚：Total Cost of 2018-19 Tuition, Registration & Family Participation: $9,800
请注意：这是一所天主教中学，最好孩子和家庭是有同样信仰的。

这两所学校都很好，从那里毕业进多大或者麦吉尔难度都比国内小很多。但孩子是否足够的自律+自信和开朗需要家长仔细分析，才能决定把孩子送出来。 如果需要详细分析你选的学校， 我们可以帮助。

如果需要文书修改，我们可以提供帮助

你说的是美国MBA吧？ 一般是两年。中间的暑期实习非常重要，很有价值。
2019-01-09 00:51:43
孩子有这么多成绩非常不错。但是如果希望进入最优秀的高中，需要有突出的特点，不一定获得一堆奖或者考了多少个满分就是好的。应该站在顶尖学习为顶尖大学，顶尖大学培养未来社会的栋梁这个角度去思考。孩子有什么passion, 什么是他的dream，他为了实现一个dream做了哪些事情，付出了哪些努力，克服了怎样的困难。而不是父母希望他怎样怎样。如果能让孩子静下心来，把自己的理想、梦想、动力认真思考思考，写出让录取官（financial aid committee）看到这是一个值得培养和投资的孩子，一切都不是不可能的。
原问题 选校求助！目前在加拿大已拿到很多有special program高中的offer. 想冲一下美高私校。硬伤是要申请financial aid. 孩子想全申美国top寄宿高中，具体有PE,PA,SPS, DA, Choate, Hotchkiss，Lawrenceville. 我希望他能申几所排名低的、相对有把握点的学校。请专家们和有经验的家长们给我些建议。谢谢！ 男孩现在Grade8, 5年前移民加拿大，自学3周SSAT 2300+ 98%, 7年级及以前math/science/history等A+，English/French中有B，8年级成绩除法语外全A。数学、科学很强也很有兴趣。 自学能力强，数学科学等全是自学，数学超前3个年级。8年级以下数学竞赛拿了不少全国gold awards. 2018 AMC8 top1%. 2018参加加拿大9/10年级数学竞赛8000多人中排20多。 sports有柔道(拿过省赛他所在section冠军)，足球club competitive team(没有出彩的成绩)，游泳competitive team(没有出彩成绩)。 chess(国际象棋)曾排名同年龄组全国前十，拿过省年龄组亚军。因为种种原因，一年半以前没继续了。 学架子鼓drum三年多，目前每周上课每天练习，是校concert band鼓手，该校concert band拿过很过地区校际音乐赛大奖。因校band 太大，60来个人，集合训练不够灵活，他自己和同学带头招兵买马组了个小点的乐队，平时训练，学校有小活动他们去演出。 学校里student voice代表和student council active member，为学校fund raising做了不少贡献。 参加校外一个非营利club, 义务为community修电脑。

是的，推荐信需要直接由推荐人寄给学校。

学生不能以不违反校规为行为准则，精英教育是偏向于保守的，尤其是百年老校的老师们。
2019-01-09 00:36:27
虽然纹身在主流社会有时候仍然会吸引一些特殊的目光，但主要是看具体纹身的内容。如果只是一个小图案，都没什么。如果是涉及种族、宗教等敏感内容，有可能会产生麻烦，学校一般对种族歧视、仇恨、宣传暴力等的纹身不会包容。染头发一般不会触犯校规。但所有不会触犯校规的行为不意味着不会影响老师对你的态度。
