[quote=Anonymous]I wish I would have known how great of a school it is so that we could have applied our daughter earlier. Our DD transferred to Holton in 7th grade. If I had known how strong of a school it really is, I would have done it a lot earlier. The teachers are really top notch, the administration is incredibly strong with decades of experience in working with girls, and the school is clearly committed to ensuring each girl identifies her unique strengths and is encouraged to take risks and to soar. We hesitated applying for years as I, quite frankly, mistakenly assumed it was only a school for rich, white kids. Rich we are not and we craved a diverse student body for our DD. Holton has a very diverse student body, really down to earth parent community, just great. We have a large family and have had multiple kids at various independent schools in the area and have to say that we have found NOTHING that compares to Holton. Bottom line as with everything in life, don't make decisions based on assumptions, check it out yourself. Our family is very grateful that we did.[/quote]
