[quote=Anonymous]Sorry, prior post edited to fix a typo: Anyone looking for information on Madeira should ignore the strange, bile-filled postings of the McLean poster who has purportedly met one Madeira student ever -- her post says much more about herself than Madeira (assuming it is not just a silly attempt to stir up controversy). Those in the independent school scene in DC have a great deal of respect for Madeira. They were way out in front on their co-curriculum program (prior posters have described it) and have resisted the pressure from sports-loving society to scrap the program (which precludes sports practices on one weekday). A friend who taught there for many years spoke emphatically of the very supportive school culture for the girls, which can actually be a hard thing to foster in an all-girls environment with high achieving kids. Lots of good things to say about Madeira, in brief. It is well worth you checking it out as an option.[/quote]
