[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Madeira is not that competitive.  Ease up.[/quote]

Madeira has more of a range of girls. It would be expensive for boarding. However it seems like the OP's daughter might struggle with the weird schedule.

It has gotten a little more popular in the past ten years, but might still be doable admissions wise for OP's daughter. [/quote]

I’m not sure what your experience with Madeira is, maybe you can share it? I know the school and the type of girls they admit. They are not admitting B/C students with no hook. Not even for boarding. They are more flexible with grades but then the girls have something else - a dancer that competes nationally, the girl that does community theater, enters writing contests, etc. I’m not trying to boost the school, it’s just a fact. Luckily, OP will have the guidance of her K-8 to help her choose appropriate schools.[/quote]

Sure but Madeira gives finishing school vibe.  It's deep in the woods in a very wealthy enclave and there are the horses of course.[/quote]
