[quote=Anonymous]Some regions are pushing centers and local full time programs to do a joint orientation at a "neutral location" (so not at the feeder schools or the center school). I am curious about what current and prospective full-time parents think about this idea.

The reasoning I have been told is that a combined orientation would help dispel the perception that the programs are different at center and local full time, as well as the idea that center and local programs "compete" for full time students. (Whether these perceptions are accurate or not, the district does not what to perpetuate them.) Also, parents would only have to attend one orientation.

If your child is in full time, would you have liked this arrangement instead of having the option to attend orientations at both schools?

Do you feel that attending a center orientation helped you be more secure in your decision (either to stay at your local or to change to a center)?

If you are a second grade parent, would you like this? Or would you prefer to have the option to attend both?[/quote]
