According to Jed talking on NESN right now, he didn't even know the ball was gone until he reached home. He just ran the whole way around the bases because he couldn't see an ump making the sign or anything. D'aww! NJ, my high school has about 250…

We were a public school that seemed much like a private school. My class was around 200 and we had a 97% college attendance rate. Lots of folks went Ivy League.

The public high school in my city has great honors programs, but the rest of the school is pretty bad and there's a lot of bad non-academic stuff, too--teen pregnancy and suicides and all that fun stuff. There's one nearby that has a lot of really great programs, though, and a great community. My school is just great, though. It has a 100% graduate college attendance rate. I think three seniors in this year's graduating class (of about 50) got into Williams, for example... The public schools where I am are a mixed bag.

I feel very fortunate that I went to school when I did and where I did. It was a public school, but happened to be ranked among the very best in the country. Sad to say, when I went out to look for a teaching job elsewhere in NY State, I learned very quickly what a huge difference there was between my school and a lot of the others. By the time I got done with my job search I decided not to go into teaching after all. It was that bad. And schools have gone downhill since then. You would not believe the lack of literacy among high school graduates here in North Carolina. It's really sad. nj, I don’t have any kids, but I hear so much bad about public schools.
