<p>If you go to a day school in New York State or New Jersey, can you describe what your school is like. Trying to get more information about potential day schools for parents of a boy who'll be starting 8th grade in the fall and can go to a day school near either parent (divorced). So I am looking for the student perspective of schools either within an hour drive of Pelham and within an hours drive of Short Hills NJ. Since he has missed the application cycle for this coming fall, we are probably talking about starting 9th in 18 months. He can stay at his school (boarding) or go to public til 9th. He is a very strong student but wants a cooperative environment..not a cutthroat (parents or students) one. So tell us about the one you go to. If you don't (or your child doesn't) go to a day school, I'd appreciate it if you would refrain from posting here--since there would be no point. If you go to a day school in NY or NJ, please tell us about it.</p>
<p>So no high school students in prep school in NY or NJ wanting to write about what there school is like?</p>
