[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish I had known that the school is so warm and the that we would meet so many parents that we enjoy spending time with.  I actually look forward to attending parent socials, it gives us a chance to hangout with some really fun parents and have great conversations.  Also, I wish I had known how far the school will go to ensure the success of my DD. All girls are treated well regardless of race or SES.  [/quote]

The construction "I wish I had know . . . " implies you would have done something differently, had you known. What would you have done differently?[/quote]

Ok, well let me add,  I wish I had known all of this because I had a genuine fear that I was putting my DD in a school that would give her a great education but I did not think we would not mesh too well with what I thought would be a bunch of wealthy, snotty or boring parents and that the wealthy kids would get preferential treatment because their parents are big donors. This is not the case and I could have saved myself a lot of unneeded worry![/quote]

I was also really worried about being a FA family and my daughter not fitting in socially because of this.  I shouldn't have worried.  [/quote]
