[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. She is highly academic, competitive athlete, string instrument, and avid book reader. Very nice and polite. Blends in very well in most settings. Likes friends that are smart (girls and boys) but helps teacher with students that need more help. Can be a little shy and not competitive with school work. [b]At times she would share her grade on an assignment with me and I would ask what other kids received and she always says she does not know. I was a little concerned b/c I was more competitve growing up but I had to accept that as part of her personality.[/b] It has not hurt her b/c she has never received less than an A. Part of me wants her to go to Holton b/c I heard it was less competitve (although still highly academic) than NCS and may fit better with her personality. The other part of me wants her to pick it up with her competitive edge and believe NCS could teach her that. We have an open mind on this and know she will be served well no matter the school chosen. [/quote] Wow. So different from my orientation which has been to advise my kids not to talk about grades. [/quote]
