New England is loaded with high-end private schools. Andover and Exeter are often considered the best in America, Groton has a hall of presidential letters, and even the second-tier "sports" schools like Catholic Memorial and BC High have great success.

My experience, having run programs for one of the top 10 private schools in MA, and tutored students from many of the rest, is that it's the kids, not the schools, that make the difference.

In terms of NH, when I gave up the summer gig in MA, I started networking with private schools near my camp—Holderness and Brewster were the closest—but I just couldn't take the final step after being free for the first time in 15 years.

Among the many aspects of being lucky to live in New England are the educational opportunities.
