I went to Hopkins in new haven. Changed my life. It’s 7-12 grade though. Most of those kids came from either Foote or st Thomas’s day school

I actually had classes with one of his daughters in high school before he started going for governor. She was super chill and worked really hard at Latin. But I literally just had to watch that campaign ad multiple times to confirm that was the same person, acts like a shell of who I knew her as.

I fully understand you and agree. I’ve moved out of the country now and I’ve started my son at the private school of our choice in their nursery at 9 months old. He will be there until he’s 18. My private school experience showed me that I wanted that for my son for the entirety of his education.

Good luck in your search.

At times, but it was my own internal monologue. The other students didn’t make comments on it. Hopkins definitely had its own feeder schools and actually starts in 7th grade, so there were kids there who had gone to school together their whole lives. But the grades double in size in the high school so half of the kids were also just starting. I say that the school integrated us all well and I had classes with everyone and by the end, my friend groups were definitely mixed of those who started at all different points.

Yes, I went to a public school for kindergarten - 8th and then private school for high school. It was Hopkins in New Haven which yes is a feeder to Yale. But I didn’t go to Yale, different Ivy.

Just to offer a differing opinion, I went to both public and private school in CT. My private school changed my life. The opportunities I got would not have happened in public school and I fully believe my private school led me to the Ivy League and gave me a much more enjoyable high school experience than I would’ve had in my public schools.
