[quote=Anonymous]Ridiculous.  Folks claiming "St Pats parents with kids who move on to St Albans bad mouth Beauvoir" are absolutely full of it.  I have never, ever heard a St Pats parent in any way bad mouth or denigrate Beauvoir or it's students.  In fact, if you hear any thing mean spirited said in this regard, it's the Beauvoir parents who say families only choose St Pats if they can/don't get in to Beauvoir.

St Pats families are generally quite proud of and happy with the education their kids get, especially if they end up at their first choice school next.  That basically sums up the families who move on to the close after 3rd, 7th or 9th at St Pats.

While I have kids at both schools, I would not call St. Pats a feeder in the traditional sense of having actual academic  institutional ties to STA/NCS.  That distinction is Beauvoir's alone.

I would say that, after the largest influx from Beauvoir at 4th, St Pats is the independent school which sends the next largest number of students on to STA/NCS cumulatively.  This is not a trend that will diminish anytime soon.  In fact, it continues to increase year over year.[/quote]
