[quote=Anonymous]go to open houses. I know some peopel think they are a waste of time and don't do them unless they are already accepted but I found them very helpful. When you are at the playground, chat with other parents of school age kids and ask them how they feel about their school. And definitely visit your IB. Because chances are if you try for any popular charter you are NOT gettng in, so you need to make peace with your options. I did THREE tours/open houses of our IB, starting when our kid was only a year old. I saw some changes over time. We got shut out of our top 5 choices in lottery and will be at teh IB at least for 1-2 years now and I am ok with that. [/quote]
