Anyone who volunteers/works with admissions know if they are mailing things out tomorrow?

I really don't want that. I'm a pretty private person and don't want my neighbors having that info or other parents judging our house/yard/car.



Yard signs for current students was a thing during lockdown.

But admissions? Ew.


some schools definitely did it
My neighbor had a "future grasshopper" or some such thing from GDS in their yard.

Yes I’ve seen the “future” xxx in a few neighborhoods yards before

I think it’s likely after they accept. Maybe they passed them out in late Spring?

What if the sign bearer gets there and there are competing acceptance signs? Do they just make a little line of them?

Yard signs go in after family commits to school- never before. If they’re even doing yard signs this year. My humble guess is that many schools will do this every year now. I hope I’m wrong. It’s not that it’s that big of a deal- I don’t know why I don’t like them. My kids were in long before this started with the pandemic and I appreciate why they started doing it.

Lol I was going to post something similar. GDS shows up and sees signs already for Sidwell, Cathedral, Potomac, Maret… awkward…

Some people immediately accept. With me there may be a conversation or two that needs to be had first.
