You are completely right for those who said not to focus on the school's matriculation list (although it's just so tempting when you see such an impressive list!) Ultimately, if a student works hard no matter what school he or she attends, he or she will be rewarded accordingly. I am still curious about the atmosphere of St. Albans and NCS. Are students excited to be there or, at the very least, enjoying their time there? With that price tag, I want my kids to be among students who are passionate about the school, rather than simply having parents who are passionate about seeing their kids get ahead in life. The amount of school pride can really define someone's high school experience.
I have a son. If you have a DD I recommend NCS. Holton fans are clueless.
