[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know this site is mostly for day schools, but as a local parent, I am sending my kid to boarding school next year. He's a stellar student, the top ranked in his 8th grade class and a 97th percentile SSAT. We are applying to New England prep schools such as Exeter, Andover, St. Paul's, Choate, Deerfield, etc. We are also applying to Woodberry Forest and Episcopal as close-to-home options.

Does anyone have any experience Woodberry or Episcopal? My family has experience with the New England schools. His older sibling attended Andover and did fine but it was an academic pressure cooker. Episcopal or Woodberry seems a little more laid back, and he'd probably be a standout student there. I don't think he'd rise to the top of the most competitive Northeast boarding schools because of how competitive they are.

I think it's weird that someone with the amount of money you seemingly have and the interest and experience you seemingly have with status and boarding schools would need the posters from DCUM to chime in on your ridiculous dilemma. [/quote]
