The school will tell you they have a stellar reputation, but they really don't. Dr Wise likes to talk a good game, but in reality outplacement is nothing special.


Yup. And now she is heading to NCRC, where outplacement has been horrific the last few years unless you are a sibling or alum. Go NCRC!


I'm sorry, but can you substantiate this opinion?


Sure, give me a call and I'll fill you in. and yes, they do go to great schools as long as they were a sibling or an alum.

I don't think that 13:55 will be able to substantiate that opinion. Outplacement at NCRC is good. The children get into great schools.

My child went on to Norwood. Two kids from our graduating class went to Landon. Its a great, small little school. Your sending your kid there to learn to love school and make great friendships. I strongly reccomnd it to others.

Obviously not every school is right for every kid and sometimes a parent will not care for the school's head or some of the teachers. It happens. Our experience with Harbor has been great. We have been very happy with the learning environment, the quality of the teaching, and the success we have had in outplacement.

Harbor is a fantastic school. We've had two kids through it. Both of my girls went on to Holton

Oh, look! It's the "full of shit" poster who appears on every Harbor thread! Hi! Did you forget that you already left your droppings on this thread a few pages ago? If you hold such a grudge, shouldn't you be hopping over to the NCRC threads now?

I think that's why you read so many jeckel/hyde stories about Dr. Wise on here. She impresses people with her personality and experience, and woos them with stories about how good her relationship is with admission directors...and they think she's a wonderful person until they apply out...then realize she actually over-promises and under delivers.
