Keep telling yourself that.
Your alumni say different.
Take a look on Jericho Turnpike. I do not see an education center standing there. It is a state of the art Athletic Center.
There shouldn't be any doubt that given one spot, Chaminade would admit a straight A non-athlete over a B- all-American laxer every single time. Not every Catholic school can say that. You would think that with drawing great talent from all corners of Nassau and even some Suffolk that Chaminade wouldn't be losing to small publics that only draw from a 2 mile radius like Yorktown. Somethin' aint right with that. And why are they ducking their next door neighbor GC? How do you know it is not GC ducking Chaminade? Agree 100%. Chaminade would be more than happy to play (and beat) them. GC, on the other hand, has an issue since recently many of their top players are gravitating towards Chaminade. There are 5-6 top kids from GC in the current freshman class and a big group studying hard now for the entrance exam. The last thing the GC coaches want to do is fuel that fire by playing Chaminade and getting destroyed.....

You need to do well on the test or you don't get in....period.

Sorry but you are just flat wrong about that, my son had a couple of very talented lax players who are all in the advanced classes in their public schools (including one whose dad graduated from Chaminade) who did not get accepted. They were accepted by other Catholic high schools but not Chaminade. So please stop trying to denigrate the kids that get accepted to Chaminade.

If you don't think that MANY Chaminade boys accepted aren't with favors or coaches giving lists than you need to wake up. Also, I agree that it is possible that a "top lacrosse" player can also be very bright, my wife gave birth to one. And he perfers black and gold. He likes to be in a realitsc intuition acdemically that resembles LIFE. You know, males & females interacting.

Be a very good athlete, have someone make a phone call, legacy, etc. A decent don't get in intially based on the test score but then are magically enrolled later after a coach sees them or a phone call is made.

Why can't Larry Miller make a thread for this and move these posts there? That way people can actually talk about the Express here.

There is a cut-off score for admission. For arguments sake, if in a given year it is 92 then, yes, there will be kids who get 89 whose dad or uncle went there who may get in. However, if the kid cranks out a 70, I dont care if he is the best player around, he is not getting in. I know of one young man who didn't get in years back despite his Dad having gone there and been valedictorian. So, there are exceptions but also a score beneath which your connections can't help. Lastly, I agree the notion that the coaches have admission picks is pure nonsense. Imagine if they did!

This whole debate is a joke. Both your pvt schools suck. Come into the city and try and get in somewhere. Half the class goes ivy.

Tuition was stated when you recieved your invite letter. Summer tuition is $1800 includes 5 tournaments , uniform, and the rest like usual , practices. Anything extra would be additional charge most likely . It's average price .

2019 Express ended 2014 summer on a high note They really came into their own. I am not a part of the team (but a fan); I am curious where they are slated to play for the fall.
Is there any chance the LI teams will play each other this fall. Remembering it is not really which team is better or best but how can we get the boys better. I truly enjoy watching the boys now that they are starting to "get it".

According to U.S. News, Long Island's top 10 high schools are:
1. Jericho High School; Jericho 2. Manhasset Secondary School; Manhasset 3. William A. Shine Great Neck South High School; Great Neck 4. Garden City High School; Garden City 5. South Side High School, Rockville Centre 6. Cold Spring Harbor High School; Cold Spring Harbor 7. The Wheatley School; Old Westbury 8. Syosset Senior High School; Syosset 9. Herricks High School; New Hyde Park 10. Harborfields High School; Greenlawn
The flaw in this list is that it ranks only public schools. It is very likely that a listing of the best schools on Long island including publics, privates and religious such as Chaminade, St. A's, Friends, Kellenberg, Sacred Heart, Mercy, Portledge, Waldorf and Stony Brook would be significantly different (especially at the top).
Here are some very interesting stats Almost 13 thousand kids go to Catholic High Schools on LI (up almost 2o% percent in the past 10 years).
The draw to the Catholic High Schools is about 60% from catholic elementary/ 40% from public
Chaminade takes those kids that score best on the test.
Lastly, 100% of Chaminade kids applied and were accepted to colleges last year. Most public schools can't say that.

They don't take any kids that have any academic issues. Or any other issues. Publics are REQUIRED to educate every student that resides in the district, despite any issue. Can't compare.

PLEASE STOP TRYING TO LUMP ST ANTHONYS WITH CHAMINADE. APPLES AND ORNAGES. ONE IS ACKNOWLEDGED AS AN VERY GOOD ACADMIC SCHOOL WITH HISTORY AND A RECORD OF EXCELLENCE, THE OTHER IS REALLY NOT IN SAME LEAGUE AS A SCHOOL. WINNING FOOTBALL GAMES IS NOT THE MEASURE OF A GREAT SCHOOL.

According to U.S. News, Long Island's top 10 high schools are:
1. Jericho High School; Jericho 2. Manhasset Secondary School; Manhasset 3. William A. Shine Great Neck South High School; Great Neck 4. Garden City High School; Garden City 5. South Side High School, Rockville Centre 6. Cold Spring Harbor High School; Cold Spring Harbor 7. The Wheatley School; Old Westbury 8. Syosset Senior High School; Syosset 9. Herricks High School; New Hyde Park 10. Harborfields High School; Greenlawn
The flaw in this list is that it ranks only public schools. It is very likely that a listing of the best schools on Long island including publics, privates and religious such as Chaminade, St. A's, Friends, Kellenberg, Sacred Heart, Mercy, Portledge, Waldorf and Stony Brook would be significantly different (especially at the top).
Here are some very interesting stats Almost 13 thousand kids go to Catholic High Schools on LI (up almost 2o% percent in the past 10 years).
The draw to the Catholic High Schools is about 60% from catholic elementary/ 40% from public
Chaminade takes those kids that score best on the test.
Lastly, 100% of Chaminade kids applied and were accepted to colleges last year. Most public schools can't say that. The sentence is where you went off the rails. Of course 100% were accepted. They don't take any kids that have any academic issues. Or any other issues. Publics are REQUIRED to educate every student that resides in the district, despite any issue. Can't compare. Nobody cares about your rankings except your Realtor and receiver of Taxes. Our kids go to Catholic schools because they want to. They are part something that bonds them for a lifetime. Pedophelia? No, think it's racially insensitive behavior
