The other reason WHY to go to some of these Prep schools is athletics. My second cousin’s son is a very good hockey goalie. After playing for his suburban Buffalo high school he got a chance to play for Cushing for his Senior year.

He played there one year and is now on a semi pro team.
If he continues to play well, he could end up in the NHL.

Oh how nice; however, Cushing is sadly NOT what it once was. And it is one of of the very FEW elite boarding schools that was founded as co-ed.

FYI...Bette Davis graduated from Cushing and funded a graduating Senior prize, for theatre/drama! :-)
