Subject: Which schools feed Beauvoir for K?

NCRC head was the outplacement director at BVR so lots of pull there. My DD's NCRC pre K sent about 20- 25 kids to BVR for K. It made adjusting to BVR for K easier for DD because she knew so many from her pre school and loved having some in her K class. It did feel like an extension of NCRC.
Even if NCRC doesn’t provide this which I am surprised about. They provide something that BVR wants “kids who love to learn”. You buy a kindergarten workbook off of amazon and you are good about pre-reading/writting skills. Am I right?

Both my kids loved it and have great friends from there. But NCRC seems to have REALLY expanded…that makes the whole outplacement process a lot harder…you can’t escape the numbers game. I know there were a lot of unhappy PreK families last year after admissions decisions came out.
How many kids now vs before?
