Beauvoir Outplacment Results

[Anonymous]

This thread should stay focused on the title. Again, the conclusions are: Beauvoir is a great bet if you are set on NCS and STA. Can't beat it for that. It's not a guarantee for other schools. That's it. Visit the school and make your own decisions about whether it's right for your child.

Much of the rest of thread is noise.

As opposed to the parents who could only afford tuition starting from 4th grade?

Or for that matter in 9th grade. I’m sure there are many public school students who are as smart, if not smarter, than some of the kids admitted at to any private school at 9th. However, their parents might not be able to afford private school tuition at all.

Conversely, I bet there are occasionally [/u]some[u] STA, NCS/Sidwell, GDS students who, despite the handicap of being born into a family that can afford private school tuition, are brighter than any of their public school counterparts.
