[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone have an idea of how the academics at Beauvoir compare to Norwood or WES?[/quote] I have heard that Norwood does a better job of preparing kids for schools like STA and NCS than Beauvoir does. I found that interesting since Beauvoir is supposed to be the feeder. No clue on WES.[/quote] You people who bitch and moan are amazing! If Beauvoir is such a terrible place, no one feels welcome, there are too many mean families, the lunch is not good enough etc, etc, etc! Then put up or shut up!!! Pull your children OUT send them to other schools that you think do a better job or better yet do not apply so that those who think it is a good place can send their child to the school. If Beauvoir did not prepare their students for STA and NCS then STA and NCS would not admit them (I know some of you think that Beauvoir has some magical power to get children in anywhere they want but lets not start that discussion again) I do not understand why Beauvoir and the cathedral schools get such reactions and venom shot at them on this website. There are a number of very good independent schools in the DC metro area all of which have their pros and cons no place is perfect for all but may be for someone's famliy. Focus on what is best for your family and if you do not find it at product A move on to B. Before anyone asks I am not part of the cathedral community and I have not lived in the DC area for a few years but I was a teacher in DCPS system and had many great interactions with many students and teachers from the DC independent schools. Just my two cents. [b]FIRE WHEN READY! [/quote] My sense is that most of the venom comes from outside of the Beauvoir community. Most within might quibble here and there about this or that, but truly love the place. [/quote]
