[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SR is not much lower tier than NCS or Holton and I can assure you mean girls exist at every school. [/quote]

The graduating classes at SR and Holton are a similar size this year (86 versus 90).

Of the seniors who have posted on Insta, only 1 of the 44 SR girls is going to a top school (HYPMS, Duke, Northwestern, JHU, Chicago). By contrast, 8 of the 29 Holton girls are going to schools at that level. [/quote]

I’m an SR parent and I’ve noticed this difference compared to Holton, but I don’t think it’s the academics or the kids, but rather the college counseling. Hopefully they can work on it.[/quote]

I've looked at both schools in depth and it seems to me that Holton places much more emphasis on STEM. Could you that be another reason for the difference? [/quote]

STEM is outdated. It’s been over 10 years since it’s changed to STEAM

Research shows that integrating the arts into STEM leads to better learning outcomes, higher engagement, and greater adaptability in an evolving job market. Ignoring the arts in education is a mistake; the most successful leaders and entrepreneurs value creativity as much as technical expertise.
