[quote=Anonymous]I would agree with PP.

Our experience has been that social issues,  bullying and lots of "mean girl stuff, is routinely diminished or over-looked by the administration.  My DD has also mentioned a couple or teachers who either pay particular attention to the popular girls to the exclusion of the rest or some homeroom teachers who befriend the popular boys.

Re LS: We hung on through the lower school just counting the days until our children entered the MS.  We had a very mixed bag experience in LS.  Second grade was a nightmare and very difficult for our DD.  After speaking to other parents, we discovered that one reading teacher told each family in her entire class that their children needed tutoring and psychological intervention. Third grade was a wash.  We loved the Fourth Grade team of teachers for both our kids.

For the most part, Norwood teachers are very dedicated and are willing to help their students.  We have found the administration to be off-putting.  Routinely emails are sent out to the community at largewith mistakes, and we now come to expect that the emails we send to certain members of the administration will unanswered.

We have two years left for our youngest to finish.  Was it worth $30K a year?  I am not sure, but my kids have been mostly happy[/quote]
