[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sat scores going down is a fact. Info on the ncs website. Their school profile gives this information and it has definitely declined. [/quote]

Its a reflection of declining applications, and therefore lower standards.[/quote]

Exactly.  And that could have to do with their reputation and not just economy.  [/quote]
Why has their reputation suffered?[/quote]

I am also curious about the supposed decline in their rep.  We don't have kids @ a SS school, but know a lot of wonderful girls and young women @ NCS.  [/quote]

NCS's reputation has "suffered" only among a handful of DCUM bashers, and that's about it. Sorry, but I'm sick of this BS, whoever you are, and some of you have identified yourselves as disgruntled grads from the 80s, been exposed as trolls (the poster on another thread who was bashing away but couldn't identify the cafeteria) or even, and this is pure speculation, Holton boosters.

My own DD turned NCS down. I posted early on that 40-page NCS thread that NCS took the meanest girls from DD's K-6 and maybe NCS thought, mistakenly, that they were selecting for "strong" girls. That's my honest opinion, but obviously it's anecdotal, and I certainly didn't show up on every subsequent page to say exactly the same thing. The moderator ultimately shut that thread down because, he said, it had deteriorated into a couple of bashers who were bashing over and over.

So stop already with this nonsense. Bashing away and then posting in a declarative way that the school's "reputation has suffered" because of, um, your own online anonymous bashing, is petty and ridiculous.[/quote]
