[quote=Anonymous]Because of the ever-increasing degree of helicoptering, many schools have put into place all sorts of "orientation" activities for parents, mostly to get them away from and out of the hair of their kids at drop off, and in response to demand (with of course some input from the development office!). But truly they are to distract you, and if you don't feel the need or have the time, simply dropping your kid off after a visit to Bed, Bath and Beyond to fill in whatever is needed and helping DC lug their stuff up the stairs and possibly move furniture, GET OUT OF THERE! Some of the orientation activities may be of use and important to hear, i.e. health care/mental health policies, how they skirt privacy versus wellbeing of students away from home[/quote]
