[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both my kids loved Beauvoir, and we felt more included as parents than we imagined we would be. Love the focus on early childhood, the experiential focus, the emphasis on letting kids have a childhood when they are young while getting them to love learning. Some parents wanted more rigor, but I found it to be just right for my kids (one academically gifted, one garden-variety bright). Two things I didn't like: weaker lead teachers were kept too long (this was under a prior head of school and may have changed...and most teachers were outstanding). And you do not at all have your pick of schools if you do not want NCS/STA. There are precious few places at 4th grade at places like Maret and Sidwell, and some families do end up sending their kids to NCS/STA by default, not because they are first choice, as strange as that sounds.[/quote]

This. 
Life does not begin and end at the Cathedral close and these schools are not the best fit for every Beauvoir child. If you want something that's not this for whatever reason, it's harder coming from Beauvoir in 4th[/quote]
