Way to go Scout! You must be very proud of her.

I'm happy with our public schools. My daughter scored a nearly perfect SAT
(800 verbal, 750 math). She received $80,000 in academic scholarships for
college. Of course, good parenting is a critical piece of the equation. WE
raised our kids and sacrificed plenty at times. We read to our children, got
involved with their school work, coached them, supported them, and got tough
when we had to get tough. As a result, they are all successful, educated
contributors to society.
OTOH, if parents don't bother to instill in their children respect for
authority, a love for learning, and the discipline and skills needed to
succeed, then let's blame the schools - why aren't they doing a better job
of raising our kids?!
