Schools

OK, Hannah isn't a brain surgeon but she has a pretty good brain. We heard back from University Liggett and she didn't qualify for their 10 scholarships. But, they want to interview her for a spot at the school. We have big decisions coming up. She has it narrowed down to two schools (but I am still holding out hope that she'll consider Cass too.) Hannah is going to spend the day at Liggett next Tuesday and then we have an information night at Mercy on the 26th. Then it is decision time. We need to decide (with a big non-refundable deposit)at Mercy by March 3.

The pros of Liggett-- Great school. Only 8 miles away. Lots of sports. Boys. Great art room (very important to Hannah). No uniforms.
The cons of Liggett--Oh, so expensive. Mostly rich, spoiled kids. None of Hannah's friends (so far) are going there.

The pros of Mercy--Great school. Catholic. Nice art program. Hannah's best friend Taylor is going there.
The cons of Mercy-27 miles away. All girls. Competitive sports teams.

I think we should just move.
