[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, for K-3, there is no real reason to think NPS is stronger or weaker than BVR in academics.

ppl look at facilities, community, and outplacement. For outplacement, if you don't mind single-sex schools, the chance of getting into a big 3/5 is 50% lower in NPS vs. BVR.

If you strongly dislike single-sex schools, neither of them look that promising. [/quote]

Why wouldn't either be promising? Kids go to co-ed from both every year.[/quote]

I think more NPS kids are going co-ed than single-sex  this year, actually![/quote]

Could you please share a bit more on this year's placement?  thank you! [/quote]

This year’s outplacement hasn’t been made public yet but I can tell you it’s a smaller grade (seems to be that way at many schools in the area) and the HOS and Admin did a fabulous job assisting the families as they dealt with outplacement in a pandemic. Last year’s class was on the larger side, and you can see their placement decisions here: https://www.nps-dc.org/our-program/seventh-grade-placement
This year’s results are very similar. My DC was accepted for K at BVR and NPS. Both schools are great. We sent DC to NPS and We appreciated being able to wait to 6th grade to make outplacement decisions. 3rd grade came really quickly IMO so I think BVR wouldn’t have been the best fit for my DC. After finishing at NPS, DC is now at StA/NCS.
