Hahahahaha.
NCS might be, but STA is not. Teachers in the joint upper level classes blatantly favor the STA boys, especially the STA teachers. And did you know that until very recently, STA boys could attend Homecoming at NCS but NCS girls had to be invited to theirs?
Feminist. Ha!
Grow up. The same complaints are lobbed by STA boys when taking classes at NCS that NCS teachers blatantly favor the girls, and penalize the boys. No one complains that NCS is misandrist. I don't know how many NCS parents brag about how their girls only take STA classes because they are easy As, etc... Both schools could do a lot more to cultivate a culture of mutual respect for each other's students and not the disdain for each other that I have observed.
Ding ding we have a winner! Apparently NCS has the culture of disdain for boys that OP is looking for.

GDS and Holton are great for transgender girls.

In all my years as an NCS parent, I have never heard an NCS parent brag about their child only taking classes at STA. I have also never met an STA parent who realized their own sons were being turned into chauvinists. And yet here we are.
Grow up yourself. The STA moms in particular showed their true colors when they went all-on for Kavanaugh’s confirmation. Because of course they did. God forbid their own perfect sons *ever* suffer the consequences of their behavior.
you're both deranged.

I'd say Holton. GDS is probably pretty pro-feminist as well.

As a mom of a boy, I always feel that the relationship is strained between schools bc of the differences in the way schools are administered (coat and tie v relaxed dress code for example). My kid always likes the NCS girls individually but feels school cultures are sometimes at odds - and students feel very strongly about their own school’s superiority. It is a strange dynamic for sure.
This makes a lot of sense. The culture at each doesn’t seem to gel well together. Not a parent at both, but looked at both very recently for different children.

I still don't understand what you are looking for in a school. A school that teaches about bell hooks and other feminists? A school where all the leadership positions are held by girls? A school that offers professional development to teachers around sexism and bias? Something else?
More than likely, you will never understand what this person is looking for as they are trying to roil the waters of the culture wars.

But aren’t these schools supposed to be magical spaces full of exceptional students? Is it the parents? The boys? The girls?
