| LFS is the BEST. Excellent teaching, warm, friendly, laid back but organized, kind, and amazing outplacement. You and your child will be so happy there. Congrats! |

Our DS was there 2 years ago. Communication at LFS is not the best. Otherwise our experience was great. Teachers are excellent at meeting kids where they are. It’s mixed aged classrooms.

| We didn’t have a great LFS experience. We found them too focused on outplacement and not enough on teacher development. We were happier at NCRC |

| Pp. Did your DC transfer to NCRC. I would think outplacement focus is tied in with teacher development. Better teachers = better prepared children = better outplacement. |

| Previous LFS family here. We liked the focus on outplacement at LFS. They really prepare kids for the next phase in a gentle manner. Not sure if outplacement is as strong now. Not sure how this years outplacement went. |

| Was wondering how successful LFS was with outplacement this year vs NCRC? A prior thread mentioned NCRC is actually stronger in outplacement. |

Yes. There are two ways to prepare a child for outplacement. One is to have them prepare for the process. For example, to practice interviews. The other is to develop a child well so that the child is generally happy and articulate. We prefer the second. We felt NCRC had good research and a good approach backing up their method. However, I hear that the school has expanded with not everyone happy with the outcome. |

| It was the Little Folks parent population that did it for me. I found NCRC families warm and down to earth at the welcoming events. Sure, it could have been a facade but the LFS parents. Yikes. |

We had the exact opposite experience and chose Little Folks over NCRC. |
