[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Holton is great for STEM, NCS has put more emphasis on it and has an excellent program now also. I don't think it has to be and either/or proposition -- both schools would be an excellent choice for girls with an interest in STEM.[/quote] Agree, both schools are an excellent choice. We are NCS family but daughter applied to Holton last year as well. [/quote] I agree too. We are a Holton family and picked it for STEM and it does not disappoint. Their arts are amazing too. Ironically, once DD was in late middle school and early high school she began a love of English because the teachers are fantastic. The problem is their course offerings are terrible for English. No honors courses and you are basically stuck doing the same course as everyone else. Looking back NCS had so many more English course offerings. I am sure they can do more in upper school and mix with STA but the lacking of English classes in Holton is something to look at. Girls are fickle and change their minds. Be open to all courses.
