Boom! Great timing as always from the ST.

The Seattle Times has never appreciated a win at all costs mentality. Bunch of Seattle (75,000)

Win? Sounds like Ballmer's three year plan to lose the state championships.

Those athletes are lucky as hell to get a free ride to Lakeside. It is a great education, even if you are only getting a 2.0 as the article reported for one of them. A 2.0 at Lakeside is like a 3.5 at a public high school.

Look at this dumb motherfucker here who has never heard of grade inflation.

Hi @CollegeDoog!

Oh. Well in that case, never mind then.

Garfield > Lakeside any day of the week for akademix. Now U Prep is an entirely different proposition.

I had a friend who went to Lakeside and they definitely don't have grade inflation. He had just a 2.8 GPA there but scored a perfect 800 math score on the SAT while I knew someone else who went to O'Dea, got a 4.0 and scored barely a 1200 (back when it was out of 1600).

Garfield is getting better at academics because of rising property values surrounding it (thanks to gentrification). Some long-time residents around there hate it because it's not diversity on their terms. Fuck them.

If I had the money to send my future kids to Lakeside, I've heard it's awfully expensive now. Might be more worth it to send my kids to Garfield, Roosevelt, or Franklin (depending on where I live) and then use 1/5th the money on private tutors.

That's like trying to argue that Sark is better at coaching than Chip Kelly.

I was talking the AP classes, just as good as any private school. Can't argue with Lakeside's campus and resources, I would never blame a kid for going there. "Lol"

Exactly. Going to Lakeside and getting *good* grades will get you into any school you want, Harvard, Brown, MIT, etc (assuming your test scores are good and no other issues).

I doubt Garfield's AP kids can claim that yet.

Lakeside is one of the few schools in the PNW with it's own seaplane harbor.
