[quote=Anonymous]My DD is a rising junior at Madeira and truly, we could not have been any happier with her high school experience.  She has grown so much as a person, experienced a high school where the girls are remarkably supportive of one another and she has thrived academically with the individual attention.  Madeira is competitive - they want achievers - but they also look at other factors in who the girl is.  I have seen a few of her friends get into the more selective schools (smart accomplished girls,) but not get into Madeira.  But at the same time, stats clearly show those other schools as being harder to get into.  So while Madeira is not as competitive for admission as some of the other local privates, it seems as if they look at the 'Whole Girl' and seem to focus on whether it is a good fit for the individual.   It was the only school that my DD even wanted to apply for outside of her public and it has been a great experience for her.  Different kids fit into different schools.  The best advice I'd have is to visit (when it is possible again) and get a feel for whether any school is a good fit.  [/quote]
