[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Middle school at NCS is lovely.  High school (particularly 11th and up) gets to be a tremendous slog.

There are girls who like it, girls who tolerate it and girls who are miserable.

Most of the happiest girls are ones who are content to get a mixture of As and Bs.  It can be quite toxic for those who aspire to all As.  [/quote]

I agree with this.  It's a difficult school academically.  If your child (or you as a parent) are pressing for all A's, or a parent that wants your girl to attend an IVY, your kid may be miserable.

The girls that make a mixture of A's and B's and are active in sports are the happiest (and have more contacts with STA boys and the kids from other privates around the DMV).

My daughter graduated from NCS recently.  High GPA and ACT score.  One of the happiest girls at NCS (along with her big group of friends).  She is loving college life and making great grades.  She has mentioned that her college classes are easier that those at NCS.  [/quote]
