[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did any non-sibs, non-Beauvoir boys get accepted to 4th grade this year?[/quote] Rumor mills say it was a brutal year for non-sibs and non-Beauvoir boys. I know the Beauvoir siblings. Off the 8 or so, there are maybe 3 real STA-types (bright, athletic, well-mannered, well-rounded). Most of the rest do not fit that mold and a few are duds and/or outright nightmares. Sibling preference should be elimated.[/quote] Perhaps your definition of the St. Albans "type" is narrower than the school's. For example, there are certainly plenty of boys at St. Albans who, although bright, are not particularly athletic. (And your haste to label nine-year old boys "duds" and "nightmares" also casts some doubt on your expertise at projecting the academic success of young boys.)[/quote]
