[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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]

That extension of childhood is really the best thing about NPS.  It really does matter.[/quote]

They claim to extend childhood and their kids stay young longer, but every year there is some god awful issue with the older grades.  The year dd was there the 4th grade boys were ranking the 10 year old girls from most hot to least hot.  This year there was just a huge blow up a couple of weeks ago bc a girl was texting some pretty horrific racial slurs to the whole class.  It happens yearly.  Does it happen everywhere?  Maybe.  But the "we hold onto childhood longer" is total crap.[/quote]

Nonsense[/quote]

+1. 4th grade boys noticing girls! Oh, the horror. [/quote]
