[quote=Anonymous]Visit the schools; go to open houses; definitely do shadow days, if offered. Explore sports programs (most schools make coaches and student athletes accessible at events) and course offerings--some may appeal more to your child. If you visit the schools, I would suspect some will fall off the list. You may want to consider proximity as well--what times do schools start/end. What will be the commute time or is busing offered. If you do sports outside of school, will you able to make practices. Is the campus close enough for the student and family to get there for events, etc. and to develop bonds outside of the school day. Not to downplay the cost factor--affordability is an important element. But if you are thinking private already vs. public because of fit and experience, it may ultimately end up less about the catholic vs. independent distinction. [/quote]
