I was advised to edit my question. First of all I want to apologise for any strange words because English is not my native language.
I am a parent of a 14 year old boy. He is now in the 8th grade and is planning to go to prep school this year (low chances) or next year. He is quite smart and is in one of the best schools in the country (Russia) for gifted kids, but he is now at the peek of the teenagers’ crisis and his GPA is not going to be very high. So probably the top 10 schools will not even consider him.So we have to look for a school which is going to be challenging for him and which looks at the kid not just at the papers and grades.
We have looked at the NMH and have received a lot of emails from them and the package and the video. Everything looks very inviting to me.
So may I ask the parents of NMH to please share with me some more personal info and maybe smth that is not possable to understand from the ads. Also maybe someone could recommend me some other schools to look at?
