[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid transferred from DCPS to STA/NCS for later middle school and is doing better academically than his/her 4 good friends who are Beauvoir lifers. We did not supplement outside of school over the years--what he/she knows is solely what was learned in school. I'm quietly proud of DCPS--they take a lot of crap (and we dealt with a lot of craziness over the years) but the kids are leaving well prepared to attend elite schools. [/quote] NP. My kids’ and our experience at Beauvoir was amazing and something I would not trade for anything. If you didn’t experience it then it is something you don’t understand and never will. The connection between the families from Beauvoir is something special and hard to explain. I am grateful for our time at Beauvoir and there was so much more than academics that was beneficial to our children. Yes it was magical and we realize more every year just how special it was the older our children get. Our children are both doing exceptionally well academically at STA/NCS but even if they were not we would not trade our time at Beauvoir for anything. [/quote] I will 100% say the same thing about our public neighborhood school. My kid made life-long friendships there. The kids are now in every type of school---public, private, parochial, international. But they still live within a few blocks of each other, text daily and see each other every week. They are each others' "people" despite their different paths now. I look back at the decision to send them there as one of the best of my life as it firmly grounded my kids in a tight-knit neighborhood community. [/quote]
