[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As for HS, we found almost all of the schools we toured to be welcoming and respectful of the feelings of young teens going through a stressful process. The exception was Fieldston . . . for whatever reason, it felt like they were disorganized, detached, and kind of phoning everything in. [/quote] Former Fieldston parent here; this is pretty accurate as to the school part of the school too. They are not, however, snobby or elitist, in fact I've heard several of them speak quite humbly about Fieldston, or even negatively compare it with more rigorous schools. (the parents and students are another story, though - if anything they seem *more* eager to cling to Fieldston as a status symbol than parents at HM/Trinity et al and certainly can go toe-to-toe with any other set of NYC parents in terms of obnoxiousness)[/quote]
