I am interested in your take of the CES stuff. As a parent of one graduate, one soon-to graduate, one Division 2 kid and an entereing Div 1 kid, I have found the real-life experiences of the CES ideals to be facinating. If you would ever like some anecdotal views on CES in gemeral and on Parker specifically, I know Emma, Liz and Hugh would love to share their stories. Peter's take is a bit premature since he doesn't enter Parker until September. Hope you're well. love to Jennifer and Vivian.<BR/>IsabelIsabelGellerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14263604733406033985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7719550.post-71814634378753239422008-01-22T14:28:00.000-05:002008-01-22T14:28:00.000-05:00I'd like to add one more framework that distills many of those you note above.
