[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Being near the house is better. She's more likely to have friends nearby. You choose ncs of you want to prioritize academics. You choose stone ridge if you are catholic and want your daughter to be with kids who are have a broader range of intelligence and drive than the ncs girls. If she is very smart and driven, choose ncs.[/quote] I have to disagree with the idea that if the child is "very smart and driven" it means you should choose the most intense school. I was as smart and driven a kid as they come, but I really benefited from being in a school where I was the top of the pack. It really depends on the kid. Some very smart, driven kids are also very sensitive, intense, and anxious. Those kids do better as big fish in small ponds. Other kids thrive on being around other kids just like them, or benefit from being pushed to challenge themselves by their peers. It's very individual.[/quote]
