[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not Sidwell.[/quote] I disagree. Almost all people I've met in lower school are genuinely nice, and school works hard to encourage similar attitude in children. Maybe I have a little more personal experience there though. [/quote] I know nice kids at Sidwell as well, nice kids who are sad and have experienced nastiness from classmates. It doesn't have a kind culture. I think Norwood should also be scratched from the list. "Poised" and "polite" is not the same thing as kind. There will be kind children at every school, and classes where there is a minimal amount of nastiness. But for a school to have a kind culture, it has to be a conscious effort form the top. My DD at NCS started out with a nice class that turned real ugly in the upper years. Some of the suggestions in this thread have been good. St. Andrew's, Field, Lowell (though I knew of a child who was teased badly at Lowell).[/quote]
