[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to NCS and would have complained about it in college.

But now that I have watched my own kids go through MCPS, I absolutely appreciate the education I got at NCS.

And yes, NCS prepares you to thrive in life, in that you strive for excellence, you know how to work hard, etc.

But it's not for every kid. And watch out for that since you are at BVR - your kid has an admissions advantage and that may mean she gets in even though she maybe shouldn't.

Go to NCS if you want your kid to be in an environment where she learns to work hard and strive to do her best.

My kids' MCPS schools had a very slacker-ish atmosphere. My kids expected to do basically no homework. Maybe one hour a night. They were used to their teachers giving them time to do it in class. College has been an adjustment. And they took the hardest classes available in HS. [/quote]

Oh, I forgot to add. I hate STA. Such an obnoxious, sexist, mean atmosphere. I would send my son to MCPS again over STA. [/quote]
