[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can anyone make a hypothetical comparison between the 4th through 6th experience at NCS and NPS? [/quote]

I’m sure NCS is more rigorous. Also, at NCS the dynamic will be different because 4th-6th are the younger grades.  NPS holds on to childhood and your kid will be the oldest at the school in 4th-6th.[/quote]

yes, each year in 4th grade NPS gets a few kids from BVR that didn't get in to NCS or St. Albans[/quote]

I have a child at Beauvoir and some who have gone through--your statement is misleading.  I have no idea where I want my youngest after Beauvoir but I have a very strong feeling it's not at one of the other cathedral schools--not because this kid would have issues but for other reasons, ie class dynamics, etc.  We may very well consider NPS but NOT because our child didn't get into a cathedral school.  Some families want to prolong the smaller environment as long as that can.  You a do a disservice to NPS and the kids who come to NPS from Beauvoir to assume this transition was a second choice option.  We have kids at NSC/STA pros and cons about both.  Genuinely think both are great but not the fit for everybody.  So many equally as great and academically rigorous schools.  Hate when people act like there are only a few schools that are the end all be all.
