[quote=Anonymous]14:19 here. Thanks BCC student for your comments. I'm sure many find them helpful. While we have your attention, I was trying to think of other commonly-discussed NCS/Beauvoir questions that you could answer. Here are a few:

(1) A hot topic among parents is "redshirting," where a young student is held back a year. Some think parents do this to gain competitive advantage for their kids. Did you see any evidence of that at NCS/B? In your experience, were the older kids in each class more successful?
(2) Some people have wondered whether lower/middle-class students and families are treated with less respect at NCS/B. I heard your comment earlier about a few very wealthy VIPs getting unfair advantage, but does the flip-side hold true? Are you treated differently if you're less well-off than most other students? If so, does the poor treatment come from students, from faculty, or from administration?
(3) Are there any Jewish families at NCS/B?
(4) Is bullying or "mean girl" behavior at NCS/B any more common than in other schools, like B-CC?

I can't think of any other questions, but perhaps others will post some for you. Thanks again for your input.[/quote]
