[quote=Anonymous]I'm a current St. Pat's parent and I have friends who are parents at many other independent schools (including NPS). I find some of these negative comments to be a bit unfair. In the experiences I've had, St. Pat's has some very lovely families and children (and a few rotten ones too). SO DOES NPS (and every other school).

I just don't understand why some people who do not attend a school, or know one jerky person from a school feel the need to bash that school and generalize about the community. There are so many schools in this region, and I think that people who are vying for these limited slots get a bit crazy with searching for data points and evidence to confirm whatever biases and preconceived notions they may have about a school.

We are a middle class family and receive generous aid from the school. We have been very happy with the families we know and the education our child is getting is wonderful. I am so glad I ignored the DCUM chatter on this issue, because we would not have landed in such a good school for our child. The fit is great for child. Teachers are so responsive and attentive to child's needs and the students seem to be a kind and close knit group. [/quote]
