[quote=Anonymous]As the parent of a “lifer” on the close who is now an upperclassman (woman?) at NCS, a few things to add on to the previous posts which are all pretty spot on: -there are cliques at NCS like any high school. my daughter has not encountered outward meanness/bullying but you’re not going to be besties with everyone either (and that’s normal). Most girls seem to find their people, a lot of friendships come from sports. -not everyone from BVR leaves, there are more than 20 still in my daughter’s grade. BUT I would not completely rule out leaving at some point. Girls do leave for different reasons and I have a lot respect for parents who move their kids bc it’s not a good fit. -academics do get much tougher in US. your child needs good time management and focus to do well. teachers are solid in US for the most part. Many are truly outstanding. -cathedral schools aren’t easy and they aren’t a ticket to t10 colleges. your kid has to put in the work.[/quote]
