I recently received a postcard in the mail that made me wonder how on earth I got onto that mailing list. It was for a college prep elementary school. I am not making this up. My initial reaction was, "Seriously?"
I mean, I've always been a total brainy nerd, and in elementary school, I had no idea our school was, like, three grade levels above the average, and I had a wonderful time there. But I think it would be different if the school's name and purpose was aiming for top college placement from Kindergarten. It's almost Japanese . . .
Would you have enjoyed a highly competitive elementary school? Did you ever wish your elementary school did more to make you college ready? What was your school like? Did you enjoy it?

You know, I actually go past that place on the way to work, and it boggles my mind every time.
