[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi everyone and thanks for the insight!   OP here- Our DD Loves her classmates many of whom will attend NCS and we live in DC, but NCS has no playground and the girls have to go out in bad weather to get to the dining hall and the gym.  Also Holton shines when after school activities i.e.. music lessons on campus etc are considered.  Shadow day at Holton and NCS were good.  The distance is a hinderance, but I've heard that Holton nurtures the whole child and NCS is a bit more tough and piles on the homework.  Sorry to sound so indecisive still.  I appreciate all of the help from your postings![/quote]

FYI, every school says that "nurtures the whole child" line -- that's one of the great school cliches of this generation, like "encouraging learning for life."  Nevertheless, sounds like you have a good gut feeling about Holton and that's a nice thing to have as you go into a new school.  Congrats to your DD and I'm sure she'll have a great experience.
