NCS is unmatched. It has amazing daily, weekly, and annual traditions that students cherish. The support of the teachers is incredible. They are always keeping your best interests in mind. Students strive for excellence while maintaining an uplifting attitude toward others. The school prepares you for college and teaches you skills like time management and collaboration.

My daughter has thrived at NCS. She has a caring group of friends and has thrived in her classes year after year. Her teachers care about the subjects they teach and are always available during office hours or email to answer questions. She's been encouraged to take on leadership positions in clubs, sports and the arts. We couldn't be happier with her experience.

Strong friendships, deep learning, and the special kind of nurturing that being in an all girls school with educators who are committed to the students' healthy development have been hallmarks of my daughter's NCS experience over the past five years. She has enjoyed it.

The sisterhood, sense of community and outstanding upperclassmen role models have been fantastic for our daughter. It's not a place for shrinking violets; Type A personal...

I was a student at NCS and I wish my parents had made another decision for my schooling. While the academics were good, I was unhappy, stressed and socially tormented, and so were many of my classmates. I think that there are many other good schools in the DC area with happier students.

If we had to do it all over again we would not send our daughter here. We are just waiting for it to be over. This year we have a harkness mah teacher. No structure, no sullabus, no teaching . My daughter is crying in her room in despair because she doesn't know what is going on. A tutor doesn't hel...
