Looking at some condos/townhouses in Gold Coast/Old Town area. Love the neighborhood, but also have to consider elementary schools in the next few years. How is Manierre, the neighborhood school, so bad? I feel like I'll be forced to send my kid to a magnet/private school or live elsewhere.

Nice!

Manierre is not great from what I’ve heard, but if you are in Gold Coast it should be Ogden which is great, one of the best elementary schools in the city. Challenge is in later elementary school years they merged with Jenner which is not so great. If looking for a rental I just put my Gold Coast Ogden district condo up for rent 😀

I have been looking at the curriculums for Harvard Business School's Master of Business Administration and Harvard Extension School's ALM in Management. They both have the same requirements (generally speaking) including a capstone course that serves as a field immersion course with the Master's in Management, which is fairly new. If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?

Hello! Any CST/CSFAs on here? I'm curious about your salary and location! My small community hospital was recently bought by a very large hospital system. They gave large raises to 95% of our employees across all specialties (some called what they got "life changing") but our group was overlooked or disregarded with no explanation! Now we are losing employees (4 have put in notices in the last 3 weeks and pretty much everyone is looking). Any suggestions on getting someone to reassess our wage?
