[quote=Anonymous]Another vote here for following your own experiences instead of reputation. We almost didn't tour Beauvoir b/c of the reputation. On the first tour, we met another prospective parent who reinforced all of the stereotypes, and while we enjoyed the tour, we were turned off. But we decided to go back to their Open House (do they still do that?) and were so, so impressed by the teachers. So we decided to apply, DD loved her playdate, and was admitted. We have now had two kids there, and are so happy we chose to look beyond the stereotypes. We have had FA some years, but not others. Sure, there are snobs there, but where in DC privates aren't there? Most people, though, are incredibly kind and welcoming, and we've made some great friends we (and DCs) expect to keep for years. Trust your own judgment.[/quote]
