[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We went through the process last year from a K-8. I would add a few safeties, unless you are fine with public HS. I assume that you are from public because K-8 schools have counselors that help students select their schools (kind of like HS guidance counselors). All As are good but kind of standard for the schools she is applying to and really aren’t enough. If your private school counselor is okay with the list, I would be, too. But otherwise consider Madeira, Stone Ridge, Bullis, Field or Burke.[/quote] I think this is very good advice. OP, mine was on WL on Holton + GDS + eventually got into both. Chose Holton because they had all her sports (GDS was much closer for us). We knew Board Members at both. Kid ended up at Ivy. Good luck! It is a stressful process.[/quote]
