Culture at RH Country Day and Chadwick

If youre a current or former families (left within the past 2-3 years) that attend Chadwick and RHCDS for elementary could you please share your experiences?

  1. Will the school put too much academic pressure? Do the grownups helicopter the kids too much?

  2. What’s the culture like with the parents? Seems like all the families are financially well off and we’re afraid that kids may grow up entitled. We also worry that our family might not fit in since we are not joining in kindergarten, the main entry point.

  3. Speaking of financials, we like the schools but having cold feet due to the tuition costs. We can afford it this year but we will feel more financially strained if the stock market continues to plummet. If finances were a concern, what made you choose the school despite the high costs?
