[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Beauvoir is okay but be aware it oversells itself as a gateway to St. Albans and NCS.  They'll give you the impression that it's a done deal from the start.   [/quote]

Wow.  That's pretty sour grapes.   Beauvoir IS a gateway to STA and NCS.  However, the admissions team does not tell you it's a done deal from the start and anyone who has any inkling of how the process works would know that.

STA and NCS are NOT for every child.  They are quite academically competitive, and their admission teams have to believe that your child can hack it there.  That makes sense.  It creates nothing but misery all around if a child who is not capable of keeping up with the academics is  placed in either of these schools.

Oh, and any behavioral issues -- on the part of the child or their parents -- can lead to not being admitted, too.  [/quote]

+ 1 We are current family.  We definitely expect a preference for the cathedral schools but a shoe in, no way no how.  We've loved the school thus far by the way.  Very nurturing, responsive, and engaged teachers.   [/quote]
