[quote=Anonymous]Many public schools do have open houses. You can usually find a listing of events on their websites which you can link to through www.dcps.org The short answer is you don't know ahead of time , best you can do is visit the schools, talk with current parents, the principal, some teachers, etc What wished I knew (and my oldest is in K so I am only moderately weathered ;) ) is that most likely your child will be able to thrive in a range of environments so I would encourage you to prioritize school choices which work for your entire family in terms of commuting, your availability to be involved at the school, etc. Ie, The shiniest new building is not always de facto the best or even the only good option for your child to have a good experience.
