ha!
you kids spent 30 fucking grand to go to the squaw academy, and complain that it sucked. what a god damn shame, waste of money. I lived at Squaw for the winter too, guess how much it cost me? 2 grand total, and I skied everyday except monday and tuesday doing independent study through the davis school district. 30 grand is so much fucking money, I haven't even spent that much on my college yet and I'm a junior.
Kid, do yourself a favor, don't go to any academy. Find yourself a good friend who is willing to get a place out west with you, do independent study, and save yourself rubber bands full of money. Hell, you could even go to Truckee high school if you wanted to.
