Want the next school to be like Beauvoir -- is there one?

My DD goes to Beauvoir and we love it. It's progressive, loving, sweet, child-centered, and the learning is really hands-on, exciting and not pressured --it's everything we were looking for. But, sadly, it ends in 3rd. What next step school is most like it in these important (to us) ways? I'm worried from what I hear that NCS really isn't like Beauvoir even though they're under the same umbrella organization. FWIW religion isn't important to us (we're okay with Beauvoir's approach, but we're not Episcopalian so it's not important to us that she stay in an Epis school).
Thanks for any insight! |

| No school will be like Beauvoir because it is a school for young children. But to get some of the qualities you describe you might look into Burgundy Farms. |

| Holton. Just as strong academically as NCS (some say stronger, at least in math/science) and vey nurturing. They teach the girls to compete within themselves instead of against their classmates. |

| Sheridan -- but the 4th grade class doesn't expand to accept new students unless there is attrition. |

| Second Holton. More progressive, experiential approach than NCS and more nurturing, but still very strong academically. |

| Is NCS lower school nurturing? What about NCS middle school? |
