Bancroft School Reviews
because clearly the admissions department has written an Orwellian view of the current climate at Bancroft. A- is an inflated grade for this struggling institution. The reality is that at one point in time Bancroft was a wonderful school with an engaged community. Sadly, the school’s climate has suffered as a result of an administration whose values are not aligned with the mission of the school. In Bancroft terms, it hasn't been a “good fit.” Over the past 8 years, there has been a mass exodus of 100+ engaged, long term staff. To its detriment, Bancroft is a shell of its former self. What remains are the deeply embedded elitist values attempting to acclimate to a newer, diverse culture. As much as they have tried, the school pretends to be something it is not. Before you drop 40k a year on your child’s education, do your homework. Buyer beware.
