Will, We were lucky to be put on the New Trier path, a high school that was as large and comprehensive as a college. Over 5,000 students and amazing programs in sports and the performing arts. The teachers, Dr. Peterman being a prime example, were inspiring in part because they were inspired by having the resources and support of a community which wanted only the best for its public school kids. The show we were in together, "Of Thee I Sing" was mounted like a Broadway production and we were treated not like kids putting on a local show, but as budding artists who were living their dream. I can understand why you started practicing your Oscar speech early in life! All the best...Bob Goldstein
