[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids’ preK-12th grade school required letters on behalf of my then 3 year old. I think this is very typical, PPs.

OP I would get a letter from the nanny as well. [/quote]
This is not very typical. I can only guess that the reason they want a "letter of recommendation" for a child is to ascertain the pedigree of the family. That's the only thing that makes sense here. What could a note like that possibly say? "Larlo is a great napper and can count to 20." "Larlo inherited his intellect from his father, who runs a successful consulting business serving Fortune 500 companies."[/quote]

Ha, I actually have to fill out my title in the application - crazy, I know, but this is the system, need to do it.

In terms of the letter, it's standardized, they ask about how he compares to his peers in terms of gross and fine motor skills, play skills, attention, social-emotional behaviors - that's why I am so concerned his tantrums, limited attention span and occasionally pushing other kids will disqualify him.

Especially since we don't have any other connections, we're not alumni, etc.

Both my husband and I built up to the ability to afford this. [/quote]
