[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mother of NCS grad here. If you don't like the school, don't send your kid there. I also have a kid at one of the other top-tier private schools in the city and so I have a head-to-head comparison. NCS wins hands-down in every category. The biggest thing for me is that they look at each girl as an individual and bring out the best in her. The teachers really care about these girls, and so does the administration. [/quote]

Enough with the bullshit.[/quote]

People really do get nasty on this board.  I agree that the quoted language could sound like a platitude if viewed in a vacuum, but because there are people who insist the opposite (NCS doesn't value the individual; teachers and admin don't care about the individual kids) I think it is quite relevant.  NCS reminds me a little of the University of Chicago as an institution -- it really isn't for everyone, but it's great for a lot of kids, outstanding academically, and gets a bad rap more often than it should.
