[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know there are many Beauvoir threads out there.  I spent hours wading through the morass, and still found little in the form of good, practical advice.  So here, goes.  If you are a current or recently former B family, please let us know what you wish you had known when you first started.  Any other practical advice would be appreciated.

TIA.

Here's my best piece of advice, having sent 2 kids to Beauvoir, and now on my 8th year with the school - don't suck up to the few truly famous or fabulously wealthy.  I did my first 2 years there, and looking back at it, I feel like vomiting.  And I was miserable.  And the truly famous and fabulously wealthy treated me like the help.   Rather, reach out to those folks who are much more like you.  You'll make solid connections and much more enjoy what can otherwise be an experience like living high school all over again.  And oh, by the way, if you follow my advice, you'll also find yourself becoming very, well, popular, and those truly famous and fabulously wealthy will seek you out!!  [/quote]
