[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are you looking for in a tour? You definitely won't be able to sit in on classes so really the only thing you can see is the building itself. You also won't be able to talk to the teachers or students. Public schools don't care one way or the other if you come there. Private schools care so that is why they hold open houses. My son went to a magnet elementary school and they did have an open house in November prior to the application deadline. The assistant principal gave a short talk in the cafeteria and they have 5th grade students giving brief tours. That was one day and they had a limit on the number of people attending (you had to RSVP by a certain date and they only had space for a certain number of people).[/quote] Because my subjective feelings about the school will overcome the objective data I want to ignore.[/quote]
