Not trying to come off rudely. But I assume it's expensive, do you really think it's worth it?
Related follow up, do you think you're missing out by not going to something a little more relaxed during your teen years?

Yeah its like 50k. It certainly is a great education, and the local public schools are so terrible that most people who can afford private choose private, and they all cost around the same.
I definitely feel like I’m missing out; most kids at the school don’t hang out that often, and are always studying. My friends from before were much better. Here it’s always academics first, which I get, but not to such an extreme degree. Also not very many people are athletic so the school kinda sucks at sports so we don’t unite around that. All that being said, academically it is the best in the SF bay area and the teachers are amazing.

How many hours do you spend on hw in typical week?
How many classes do you take at a time? How many are AP/AT/IB?
How many students are in a typical class?
Is the school grades 9-12? 6-12?

What would you do with 200k, having attended a public school?

OP is in the USA. Unless you meant the United Mexican States.

I thought so too, but then he said something about "the Bay Area" and I realized it was California.

Thanks for the reply! Kind of what I expected, but I have a feeling that in the end, assuming you don't go to college for art history or something, it'll be worth it.

I usually spend around 8 hours a week on homework, but I usually rush it. Ironically the public school I am assigned to allows AP’s in sophmore year, while mine allows AP’s in Junior year, with the exception of a language.
Class size is usually 12 people, and the school is 9-12

Probably see my dad dump it into failing stocks and lose it all. If I actually had the money I would put it towards college.

All we have when it comes to guns are lockdown drills, but no Police/Metal Detectors. Ironic since it’s in the most dangerous city in California, but it’s in the safe part so oh well
