[quote=Anonymous]My DC was one of the kids giving the tour today at TR, and I agree with the OP. I've always thought that an adult should be there to answer the questions that the children, as cute and well-prepared to recite the mission statement as they can be, just don't know the answers to. It is TR culture though so you got a glimpse of that. TR places a very high value on public speaking and having the kids take the lead in presentations and meetings. The middle school students, for example, present their parents with a portfolio of their work during parent-teacher conferences rather than the teachers simply talking about how the child is doing.[/quote]
