Madeira v Stone Ridge

[Anonymous]

OP - if your DD is into musical theater, have her ask about the Madeira musical that just concluded 2 weeks with wonderful shows. It was Rock for the Ages (80s songs) this season and it was Newsies last season.

This is patently false. HC is no where near SR academically. Not sure where you are getting this information but anyone who knows the schools knows they are no where near the same academically.

Madeira is further ahead academically of SR than SR is of HC. I can’t believe this is even a discussion.

False. Actually Madeira and SR are pretty close academically and both far ahead of HC. Let's end this argument now with hard numbers:



MADEIRA




STONE RIDGE




HOLY CHILD

How exactly does a student body's performance on a standardized test speak to the quality of an academic program? Look at the course offerings and progressions, the methods of instruction, college results (to an extent).

It demonstrates that the student had a rigorous enough HS education to do well on the tests and there is a significant difference in the numbers to point to the fact that HC is on another level from SR and Madeira. These are quantitative and measurable methods to compare schools. Why do you think top colleges are bringing back standardized test requirements? Plus, the implication from the PP was that SR and HC on same level academically...this proves that is absolutely false.

Nobody likes Niche and their self reported SATS. Course catalog and college acceptances are a better measure. But at the end of the day, it is about fit. The schools could not be more different for so many reasons. They have some overlap because they are both all girls schools, but they really don’t attract the same type of students. Below are links taken from a different thread with 2024 college admissions to date at both schools. Seems like Madeira has a slight edge.

ITA with you that it is about fit. You are forgetting that this was in response to the person who was putting HC and SR in same category academically. I pointed out it is not and SR is closer to Madeira. If that bothers you so much, so be it. SR's course offerings and matriculations are fine. My kid hates horses, so she probably wouldn't be a good fit for Madeira.

This is incomplete information. 2024 matriculations are far from decided at this point.

My kid is a senior at Madeira - she has never been within 20 feet of a horse. She is very proud of Madeira’s equestrian program but has nothing to do with horses. Less than 10% of the school is active with the equestrian program. But hey, your daughter can stay with stereotypes. Or you can use this as a teaching moment and talk about the harms of stereotyping. And if you don’t, there are many other lovely schools for your daughter. Madeira may not fit her type

Just admit that you have brought the tenor of this conversation down considerably with the trope about Madeira just being for horsey girls. Your crazy posting does not reflect well on you or the school.

Refer back to page 1 of this thread where another poster said SR can have mean girl behavior. And…the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

I agree with the equivocation of SR and HC. I would also add Oakcrest.
