[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]GDS and Holton are great for transgender girls.[/quote] Gds I believe. Holton has transgender girls? That's great, and news to me.[/quote] Holton mom here. Holton has trans kids and is supportive.[/quote] So does NCS. So many people make assumptions about the schools their kids do not go to. "They" pronouns are at almost all girls' schools in the area. [b]Boys' schools are a different story and I think that is telling, personally.[/b] But back to the topic of this post: I think NCS, Holton, Madeira are the top choices OP would want for her daughter, although I think the whole uniforms in Upper School at Holton, and the way the girls roll up their skirts, isn't exactly "feminist" if their goal is to be as "sexy"(based on the male gaze perspective) looking as possible. Any of these schools will champion achievement and involvement and leadership by young women, that's what you need to look for if this is important to you in your school search. Do successful (in a variety of fields)Alumna come back and speak to students regularly so the current students can see potential in the future? That's so impactful and empowering for girls.[/quote] "Telling" us what? (This should be good...)[/quote]
