Some questions on Irving North Hills prep:
1. The reviews seem to be very mixed. The ratings look very good but some parent/alumni reviews on this forum are not good. Can I get some balanced feedback about what works and what doesn't for this school? Is Uplift taking this school down a "teach to the test" path or is it really good in terms of outcomes for graduating students (college admissions etc.)
2. Is the teaching driven by an overall academic overload or is there a focus on challenging kids to learn and grow through a higher quality of instruction?
3. Are there any shuttle/carpool options available from the Keller/Southlake area for this school?

Our son was just offered a spot in this year's lottery and we are trying to weigh the long commute and workload with academic outcomes as compared to our local public school. Any input from parents with kids in the upper school at North Hills will be highly appreciated.
Thanks!
