Pops: Sorry honey, tell Madison his father has to stay at the office real late. Oh, and tell Consuela she has to take him to Kumon tonight.

Mother: Well Clive, I why don't we just send the boy to Phillips Academy. I don't want to keep on making Consuela stay late. She already complained to me about his tantrums and his spoiled behaviour. I am not going let that little fucker drive her to quit- I need my personal time Clive! I need that woman!

Pops: Alright I'll call Henry and see if I can pull some strings. And check with the SSAT tutors and tell them we'll pay whatever they want to put him to the soonest slot.

Phillips Academy

A large and prestigious boarding school in Andover, MA. The school has needs-blind admissions and all are accepted on their own merits, not ability of parents to pay.

The school is huge: five different residential clusters, with five different Disciplinary Committees. In recent years the new Head of School has led a charge towards Political Correctness. So the most popular campus pastime is playing β€œI’m not privileged.” This is ironic at a school that only accepts one of eight applicants and has nearly a billion dollar endowment.

The school emphasizes that students have to be β€œNice.” This is offset by faculty who barely know the kids. It’s the same old β€œSink or Swim,” School that it’s been for 250 years, with a new Politically Correct face.

Phillips Academy used to pipeline students to the Ivies: that’s ancient history.

Phillips Academy Andover

The premier private boarding school in the United States. Located in Andover, Massachusetts and founded in 1778, it is both one of the oldest and most prestigious schools in existence. Phillips Academy offers a four year high school education with both boarding and day students. Its student body is more diverse culturally, ethnically, religiously, economically and socially than most colleges in the US. Phillips Academy is respected as one of the best educations available, and two US presidents (George H W Bush and George W Bush) are alumni.

Phillips Academy Andover is superior to exeter in every capacity.

Phillips Academy Andover

Phillips Academy Andover is known to be the best boarding school in the US. Founded in 1778 by Samuel Phillips. Has educated some of the brightest minds of the 1700's, 1800's, 1900's and present day. Andover is now becoming very close to a "needs blind" school, which means it will accept kids no matter their parents income or financial status, unlike the rich bastards who attend Exeter.

Home of some of the best sports teams in Prep School history, Andover dominates nearly in nearly every sport. Long considered rivals with Exeter, Andover realized the humor in the fact. In order to be rivals, Exeter had to beat them, which hasnt happened in a long while. Last year, at Andover/Exeter, the Big Blue football team beat the Big Stinking Red 42 - 14. Near the end of the game, Andover brought many players off the bench, because they felt so bad for the pathetic excuse of an Exeter football team. Also league champions in Cross Country, Swimming, and Volleyball, as well as many other sports.

Hated by kids who attend Andover High School, students at Andover are often referred to as a catboner.

Much more esteemed and respected than its rival, Exeter. The first two words that come to my mind would have to be "back up". Everyone knows that Exeter is a safety school for kids who couldn't get into Andover. Most of the kids at Exeter have parents who bought their childrens way into Andover's crappy counterpart in the middle of nowhere.

Wow, you go to Andover? You must be a genius! I didn't get in, so my parents had to donate a arts center up at Exeter.

No, I meant Phillips Academy Andover, not that shitty excuse of a school Phillips Exeter Academy!

Phillips Academy Andover

Phillips Academy Andover, known nationally as Andover, is a coeducational, preparatory boarding school in Andover, MA. Andover has been known as "the most preppy" or "quintessential" United States prep school, but over time has worked to shed that distinction.

Andover students are the brightest of the bright, with nearly 65% of each graduating class matriculating at a top 20 University. Therefore, competition is high and the tension on campus is great. When combined with the "Andover bubble" effect students experience, the high-tension atmosphere of Andover leaves students to drinking and drugs. However, it seems these activities have little negative impact on either the grades or the pyschologies of the students.

All in all, alumni feel an increasing love for the school as time passes, despite the feeling of desperation many felt while in attendance.

The school is located 25 miles north of Boston; students have no dress code; there are approximately 1100 students; there are 35 AP certified classes offered and the Physics department was recently hailed "the best in the world" by College Board.

"Andover- Big, big deal. You
should've seen him when old Sally asked him how he liked the play. He was
the kind of a phony that have to give themselves room when they answer
somebody's question. He stepped back, and stepped right on the lady's foot
behind him. He probably broke every toe in her body. He said the play itself
was no masterpiece, but that the Lunts, of course, were absolute angels.
Angels. For Chrissake. Angels. That killed me. Then he and old Sally started
talking about a lot of people they both knew. It was the phoniest
conversation you ever heard in your life. They both kept thinking of places
as fast as they could, then they'd think of somebody that lived there and
mention their name. I was all set to puke when it was time to go sit down
again. I really was. And then, when the next act was over, they continued
their goddam boring conversation. They kept thinking of more places and more
names of people that lived there. The worst part was, the jerk had one of
those very phony, Ivy League voices, one of those very tired, snobby voices.
He sounded just like a girl. He didn't hesitate to horn in on my date, the
bastard. I even thought for a minute that he was going to get in the goddam
cab with us when the show was over, because he walked about two blocks with
us, but he had to meet a bunch of phonies for cocktails, he said. I could
see them all sitting around in some bar, with their goddam checkered vests,
criticizing shows and books and women in those tired, snobby voices. They
kill me, those guys. I sort of hated old Sally by the time we got in the
cab, after listening to that phony Andover bastard for about ten hours."

Phillips Academy Andover

Phillips Academy Andover is a famous private school in Andover, Massachusetts with a reputation as one the premier schools in the United States. It is the high school of President George Bush and his father. The school is historically connected with Yale sicne in past generations a large percentage of their students later attended Yale.

It fits very well in Andover since Andover is a town filled with rich people and those who want to be rich who look down at everyone else. This causes other people to not like the Andover people since they suck.
