[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sometimes, we can have a view about something and damage our experience based upon our fear without it being true.  The girls at NCS seem to love it.  My dd is in fifth grade and I see her complain about homework, because of what she has heard, and not based upon anything she has experienced herself.  I think some people wear the idea of hard working as a badge of nonsense.  My general advise is to show up at the school, tour it and see how your daughter feels.  I had a fear that my daughter would be put in a grinder.  In fact the opposite occurred.  She has grown into a confident girl who can handle the homework without much trouble and loves having her brain challenged and pushed.  The teachers are awesome and provide much needed support when she has a struggle.  I really like the school and I can say that my daughter would not ever attend anywhere else.  I think the school has listened to past students complaints about homework and pressure and has worked to lessen it.  It's up to us as parents not to put extra pressure on our girls who work hard to please us.  NCS says it has high standards.  I think they like to say that.  When I first heard it, it frightened me.  Now, I laugh at it, because while it is true, who would actually show up and say. "come to our great school, because we have low standards, where your daughter can come and excel?" No one.  NCS is great.  Don't miss out on the challenge.We need amazing girls.  No doubt your daughter is on her way.  Just listen to your heart.  We have a lot to be grateful for in the area.  We have lots of great schools to pick from and I just think NCS is the best one.  You can't go wrong with Holton and Stoneridge either.[/quote]

I second this post.  My DD is in 10th grade at NCS and absolutely loves it.  [/quote]
