[quote=Anonymous]We are a Beauvoir family who is also really disappointed with the school but with younger children. What’s tough is that any criticism or concern is met with “well your kids didn’t get what they wanted for outplacement so you’re just bitter and your criticism isn’t legitimate.” My kids haven’t even begun outplacement. We are just deeply unhappy with the school, the teaching quality and the administrations responsiveness to very real issues.

Beauvoir isn’t an excellent school and doesn’t have to be-the school benefits from demand for NCS and STA. It benefits from only being 5 years- by the time the rosiness wears off in late K or 1st, applying out in a non entry year for other schools when your kid has only 2 more years feels like a real challenge to do that and take them away from their community.

We had such great options when we applied for my older child and I so regret selecting Beauvoir. I also regret that you and I never met OP- the toxic positivity of the parent community means that these conversations take a long time to happen in real life and people are nervous to be honest about their concerns with fear that it will impact their child’s outplacement results.

I don’t know why all the Beauvoir threads keep getting reported but concerns about other schools are allowed to stand but I hope you see this before it’s deleted OP and know you and your family aren’t alone. Wishing you a great transition to your next school and happy to be following in your footsteps soon. [/quote]
