We do not love our top rated school or even the ones that we pay a lot of fee for. But, our neighborhood parents rave about our local PS (with its sky high standardized test scores) and the private school that DS attends is "highly reputed" and parents proudly put the stickers with that school's names on their vehicles. So, whether a school is great or not depends on who you ask! I may be "too picky" a person, but the others around me seem to love, love, love the same schools that I am nitpicking about smile
