[quote=Anonymous]Have had two kids at Norwood (one now in 11th grade at a "top 3" DC private school, the other in 8th grade), and we have been incredibly happy. Both kids are at the top of the class for academics and have been very happy, and there are plenty of opportunities to excel in extra activities like robotics, model UN, etc., at the school. The bullying that occurs with ALL middle schools I have found to be handled quickly and compassionately by the dean of students and other admin. As for the sports environment, there is a wide range at Norwood, and the very athletic kids tend to play on club teams so don't get worked up about whether their Norwood team is winning every game, plus every team in non-cut and has everyone play in games. And there are fun options like an outdoor activity (think hiking, rock climbing, ice skating, shelter building) instead of a sports team as well. I am so happy both kids went to Norwood as have found it a very supportive environment.[/quote]
