So I've read on some of these threads that Pine Tree has gone way downhill over the years, but how's good ole Spring Hill holding up?

Spring Hill and White Oak are the hot commodities right now. Big time white flight.

Problem is if you've got a smart kid, they don't offer the range of advanced academic courses that Pine Tree does.

sorry to hear my alma mater is going down the tubes, i guess that is inevitable nowadays

I graduated from SH in 2000 and I've heard that drugs have become more prevalent in the students. A bunch of underage upper-middle-class kids with money, what's a kid to do right? I do also agree that they are severely lacking in their curriculum. They did not even offer Physics and had only 2 AP classes when I was a senior. But they have plenty of money running through there, so I hope that they offer more now.
