[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In lower school, girls are competitive?[/quote] No, not in our experience. Our cohort was great and we did not have competitiveness issues--academically, athletically, or socially. The class below us seemed to have quite a few moms who were very tight and really into social maneuvering. MS starts in 5th and that was largely fine too. I think 6th was when we felt the first bit of the competitiveness and that was largely social e.g., who is cool and who is not type of crap that is very standard at that age. In Upper School, I actually don't remember competitiveness; there were the "popular" girls and the super successful athletes and the girls who everyone knew were very smart/taking the hardest classes, but everyone just seemed to do their own thing.
