    Unfortunately the only people we know who have their kids currently at either of these school are SUPER rich and snobbish. So much so, that they felt their kids were above Jesuit. Just our experience.

    It costs almost half a million dollars to send your kid there all 14 years.

    What age are your boys? My two kids that played soccer are 35 and 33 right now. My daughter played for an all girls soccer club based on the eastside called Portland Metro and they went to u-14 then she switched to FC Portland. My son played 2 years at PCU (he was playing up a year) and then played his u-13 year over again and continued on at FC Portland.

    My boys are 40, 35, & 30 they didn't play in college.
    My two grandsons will be on the Reynolds varsity team this coming fall. They have played year around since very young. They haven't been playing since covid and are chomping at the bit to get going.

    well, your 35 year old would be the same age as my son then. What club did he play for? I remember one tournament where I believe my son might have been a u-15 and we played a Putnam team in the tourney. I also think it was my son's senior year Franklin played Putnam at Franklin on a Saturday. My son's sophomore year they played a high school game at Milwaukie before they got a turf field. That field was horrible for soccer as it had such a high crown in the middle you could only see the players from the knee up on the opposite side, lol.

    Oh man, it was a Gladstone classic team I think sponsored by Armstrong VW. He started as a freshman at Gladstone HS.
    The Milwaukie field was bad. They have a whole new baseball/softball complex now on Lake Road not sure if the play soccer there or not.

    We use to swear allegiance to the Holy Roman Catholic church when I was a boy. The liturgy has now changed to swearing allegiance to the Catholic and apostolic church.

    This from Wikipedia:
    "The Episcopal Church also has the highest number of graduate and post-graduate degrees per capita (56%) of any other Christian denomination in the United States, as well as the most high-income earners. According to a 2014 study by the Pew Research Center, Episcopalians ranked as the third wealthiest religious group in the United States, with 35% of Episcopalians living in households with incomes of at least $100,000."

    So, we're no dummies.
