Of all the girls' schools, Holton was the most impressive to me. Their admissions team was the most professional of those our family has interacted with.

I thought Holton was very, very well done. Despite the negativity I hear about the new HOS, she certainly seems to be doing some things right.

Sadly though my daughter wouldn't seriously consider all girls.

Holton. Really well run. Very informational. Lots of available events and the girls we met seemed really engaged. Keeping our fingers crossed…

We had a lot of great experiences. Holton stood out from an engagement point of view. Tours at NCS Maret Field were both informative and also allowed you to peak into the classrooms and get a feel for what the classes/teaching was like. Had a fun/interesting interview with Sidwell. Pretty much every admission person we encountered was warm and helpful.

Funny, Field was maybe the only school that treated me with condescension when I toured as a prospective teacher.


Had the exact same experience.
