Which school routinely produces kids with poise?

Anonymous
I don't think it's weird. A school with a repressive atmosphere where the students are afraid of the teachers or administration is going to produce a lot of people with limited social skills. Some will still be ok and some will be ok when they get away. But a lot will not be poised at graduation.

I know some very poised Boy Scouts from public schools. DS wasn't interested and we were a little squeamish about how they treated gays. But DS' Boy Scout friends have tons of poise.

+1. Makes me totally write off the haters as nutcases. No connection to NCS myself.

Then being ignorant you are also stupid to draw such a conclusion


Nah. Your own posts, like the one right above, are sufficient evidence for establishing feral flakiness.

Madeira girls have a lot of poise. They have a work program which provides internships for the girls every year of high school, and senior year they all intern on the Hill. They are quite sophisticated by graduation.

There is a lot of " valley girl" speak at NCS. Even among the seniors.

Do debate teams teach poise? Which schools have competitive debate teams?

The most poised kids I've ever encountered went to local parochial schools K-12. Paul VI for high school, not sure about lower grades.

Poise is boring and ends up in a suicide attempt.

Sock puppet. Readers should know that. Another thread was locked just last week for this very reason.
