[quote=Anonymous]Someone on this site seems to Be engaging in a vendetta against Holton LS head, so I would take the posts with that understanding in mind. From our experience, Holton LS was generally good, although we did have a fair amount of turnover of teachers. The LS Head was fine until we had a complaint near the end of LS, after which we found out that most people are pretty happy to leave LS when that time comes, which seems natural in a way. And the worst teacher DD had in lower school actually taught DD a lot about how to (or not to) relate to people - this kind of learning is actually important and your kid won't get it in a hermetically sealed perfect environment. So, on balance, no complaints about Holton LS. Holton MS has been great. One couldn't ask for better, more enthusiastic, and dedicate teachers. This group really loves teaching 12-14 year old girls --- which is a precise science. It's almost tear inducing how dedicated and perceptive the MS teachers are. And the MS head is also great (but leaving at the end of the year). Not sure about US - haven't been there yet and the school isn't great about putting info forward. MS parents are supposed to learn more in January. [/quote]
