[quote=Anonymous]This year, my child applied to several private schools as we were considering options for the transition to high school. We are zoned for Whitman, and I’m worried about such a large school with so many recent issues in the news.All of the schools we applied torequired recommendations from English and math teachers. Considering my child’s grades and scores, I was surprised that she did not get in to some of the schools we were most enthusiastic about. I wondered how much influence teacher recommendations have. I don’t consider myself a difficult parent, but I do reach out about issues throughout the year and advocate for my child. I wondered if that hurt her chances. Teachers, when you fill out a recommendation, how critical are you? Are there questions about parent interactions? [/quote]
