[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having two kids who have gone through or who are currently at Norwood. Must weigh in… my DC that graduated last year ended up getting admitted to two “big three schools.” Second child won’t apply to those schools bc they’re not a good fit for him. The benefit of a K-8 is that once you’re looking at high school you have a much better idea of what is best for your kid. Also- all the kids from Norwood who end up at a public high school go bc that’s their choice, it’s not bc they didn’t get in to a private high school. Norwood’s outplacement is excellent. Also- hearing from current 8th grade kids, every kid got into numerous schools and will have options!! [/quote]

We are not Norwood parents, but at another K-8, and this is our experience too. The Norwood families we know have been very pleased with the outplacement process and one thing I have heard from all the parents who have gone through it at Norwood is how much the school does set the students up to know what high school matches their skills and abilities. I love my DC's school, but that is the one drawback, there is just a lot more angst around admission to "big 3" and it is likely anecdotal, but, the Norwood parents I encounter seem a bit less angsty about it?
