[quote=Anonymous]I've had kids at SR and at other private/parochial schools. The reputation varies depending on the population you're in. Among Catholic families, it is an excellent all girls school academically and athletically. Some non-Catholics can't imagine why anyone would choose it over the other girls private schools. Its population is probably a bit more religiously and ethnically diverse than some of the other girls Catholic schools, while still definitely having a Catholic character including masses and view towards service. I get the impression that it is less of a pressure cooker than some of the other privates (Holton, NCS) but still has stellar academics, particularly in upper school. For lower and middle schools, the pros and cons are more pronounced depending on what you're comparing it to. For lower school, small class size, a very good curriculum, and some stellar teachers are standouts. The lower school head is good with faculty, good with curriculum, less good with parents. The middle school has a good curriculum with small class sizes. Not as much tiering classes (honors/advanced) than at some other schools. Pros and cons of all of that. And I never received the stated survey asking about who we voted for. [/quote]
