[quote=Anonymous]Both you and child visit the schools. Look around and listen to how the kids talk to one another. How do the staff members talk to one another? How does the office staff treat you and one another--that can be give away to how things work there. If folks are "spoken down to" or if they're disorganized, then you may have a clue as to what's valued. Does your kid feel like he/she could fit in there? Definitely have your kid spend a day there. At the end of the day, you are taking a leap. There is no way to guarantee any school will be a perfect fit. You'll have to go through the same thing when you apply to colleges. [/quote]
