[quote=Anonymous]We applied to BVR and NPS and got into both. We were truly on the fence about which school to choose. NPS felt like a much warmer and friendlier community than BVR did for us, but I worried about the very small class sizes- especially as the kids get older. The school is not diverse, and the facilities are fine, but nothing special. I was also a little paranoid about my kid going to school right under a giant cell tower. Most of the kids from NPS get into great schools, including NCS and STA, but NCS/STA are more of a lock from BVR. BVR has more Type A families and is not a good school for kids that have any type of special need or behavioral issues, or even kids that are too smart, as they don’t differentiate in any way for them. BVR has amazing facilities and of course the playground, but the teachers aren’t as nurturing as they are at other schools. BVR would be the obvious choice if your child wants to go to NCS or STA.[/quote]
