Ever noticed how attorneys give answers like that? The reason why is that the answer to that kind of question isn't a simple one. Nor is the answer to THE most frequently asked question I receive: "Which is the best school in (name your city and/or state)?" a simple answer.
Your Needs Are All That Matter
The answer is that the best school is the one which suits your child's needs and your needs best. Finding the answer to that seemly simple question involves a process of identifying, evaluating and visiting schools. While it's certainly true that Exeter is one of the top schools in the world, what does that matter if it's the wrong fit for your child?
Forget Ranks
Forget ranks. Ranking schools is a fruitless exercise. What you need to do is determine which school will provide a warm, nurturing environment for your child. A happy child will blossom academically, athletically and socially in the right setting. Isn't that what you really want for your child? The only way you can make that determination is by thoroughly exploring the schools which you think might be a good fit.
