[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For us, there was little joy in any of the years.  As a new freshman my DD would naively sit at any lunch table assuming the girls would be friendly--  and would be completely ignored.[/quote]

PP, I feel really sad for your DD after reading this.  My DD is an alum and hates NCS.  I'm just relieved that she found her joy again in college.  As a parent, I'm totally guilty of subjecting my daughter to a school that wasn't a good fit for her, we should have pulled her out at the end of 6th grade.  I thought keeping her at NCS was the best option.  [/quote]

I read an article in Bethesda Patch this week about the Whitman principal disciplining students for actions in the community.  Suspensions from activities etc and it goes on their school record for college:

The atmosphere at NCS and other privates would be improved by similar standards.   Once the student is in the midst of junior or senior year it's hard to transfer.   It might not be NCS but rather [as in our case] the out of control students with very low morals and their parents in name only.[/quote]
