I'd say its more of a factor to be loaded than it is to be white.

But yea, most loaded people are.....well.......yea.

Not sure why people are hating so hard. Hey what do you know? Ski academies are expensive! It's nothing new. If I was still in high school I would love to attend, but there is no way I would have had the money. However, I wouldn't be bashing the shit out of the academy and the kids who go there. Some people can afford it, good for them. No reason to be a jealous little wiener face.

Does it really matter? If you can afford to go there chances are you're set for life anyhow.

Im not hating I just think the price is a little rediculous for a High School Education. Ya all of us would fuckin love to go there if we had the scrilla. Nothing against the people that attend I would love to be in their position.

Not sure exactly, but I've heard CVA is around $50 000 a year once you factor in travel and competing, and Sugarloaf is there local hill which only offers seasonal on snow training... Windells sounds reasonably priced when you consider other boarding schools and the opportunity to ski all year at a sick mountain... If I could have afforded it I would have done it for sure through High School!
