[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, it is just silly to judge a school by a website. Go and feel firsthand what the school is like. Anyone can pay a tech guy to do a fancy website. [/quote] I didn't judge the school. I asked a question. Why are people so uptight and snarky with responses on this board???[/quote] Perhaps people thought you were judging when you said "When browsing the website it felt serious and a bit uptight." That sounds like a judgment. But I take you at your word that you were just asking a question. The answer people are giving you is not to rely on a school's website to inform you if the school is serious and uptight. Good luck with your search![/quote] We were in your boat three years ago and choosing a school is a huge process. I remember thinking how much time my 8th grader took to visit schools, shadow days, etc and looking back I am so glad we did so much research. You really can't go wrong with any of the DC private schools so it can just come down to something as simple as where your daughter feels most comfortable. I realize websites are the first place to start your research so your observation is valid. I would just suggest taking every opportunity to visit and get to know these schools one on one. They all have so much to offer. In the end my DD chose NCS but it was after attending sporting events, school plays, Lessons and Carols in the Cathedral as well as programs through the admissions office. She just finished her second year and could not be happier. Best of luck to you, OP.[/quote]
