[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is really incredible list. If some schools are taking such high numbers from Norwood and presumably from other excellent K8s it shows you how few spots are available for kids from public.[/quote] I know that for Norwood, the school goes to bat for each kid. They have relationships with the top high schools. That’s just not happening, even for the best kid coming from a public school. From Norwood’s website: “Norwood maintains strong ties with all of the independent secondary schools in the greater Washington, D.C. area, as well as a number of boarding schools throughout the country.” They said that they “ Visit with admission officers to personally present each Norwood candidate.” I would assume Lowell and other K-8s do the same thing.
