[quote=Anonymous]Will sound a little weird, but I think Field and its team are genuinely focused on making a difference in kids lives. Determining that 'they can' really make a difference, I think, influences who they admit. I have multiple kids. All are solid across the board and started at a big 3, but one just hated it there. Other friends at the same school had similar situations, moving one, and leaving the rest at the big 3. Its very common at TFS. Ours loved Field. Great teachers and made great friends. They helped DC find own voice, become a leader, and DC was a recruited athlete at a solid college. At DC's prior school, they cared, but it was very structured....and they missed the athletic gifts that Field found DC had. DC loved beating them regularly in competition -; The others did fine at the big three. All will end up in the same 'good place' that us parents seek. Solid citizens, with poise, self confidence, and a good education and solid credentials, and all happy with who they are as people. Viva la difference.

TFS threads that talk about the school focusing on different drummer kids is not a good read. Its a different drummer school. They are looking for kids where they think THEY bring something to the table. [/quote]
