[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would really consider the schedules at the schools as they vary quite a bit and one might be better for your daughter than others. Holton has seven 50 minute periods a day (not a block schedule—you will have classes multiple days in a row and homework assigned one day due the next). NCS has a block schedule (longer classes every other day so no homework assigned one day due the next). Madeira has a module schedule where you take 4 classes every 5 weeks then change (so big focus on those subjects for 5 weeks in a row then a change to different subjects). Holton has an easy sports requirement that can be entirely completed during the day—afterschool sports are optional. Few students hang out ar Holton after school unless they have a specific activity. NCS requires 10 of 12 seasons of a sport (so generally a later after school commitment). Madeira is somewhere in the middle, but due to boarders tends to have more afternoon/early evening activities.

This is a good post. I have heard that NCS girls can do some kind of night personal fitness with less of a commitment,  instead of a team sport, but not 100% sure about the details. Worth asking the school if that is important to you.
