We have had 4 children attend George as day students, the last one currently as sophmore. Each child has loved the school for different reasons. George offers so much that I wish I could attend! Nancy, along with the administration and teachers, care about the students and give them the attention they need (and want!) The school is its own community; the students bond regardless of class, gender, or race. My three childs who have graduated went off to college well-prepared. I only wish I could give George more than 5 stars.
