[quote=Anonymous]Another parent of a rising junior. I’m starting to compare DC’s school calendar with when colleges are in session to hopefully minimize missing classes. An early release day might let us pull DC even earlier to make an afternoon tour at a school within an hour or two. See if colleges have school on Columbus Day or Veterans Day and use those, traveling the afternoon before as soon as school gets out. This works both for driving distance and if you have the resources for a quick trip with a direct flight of maybe 2hrs or so. DC is currently interested in multiple schools in Boston so that will be our fly in over spring break. Basically, yes your kid will likely end up missing some school or some weekend sporting events but unless you want to wait until admitted, it can’t be helped. Also, you didn’t ask but at the advice of friends we plan to lean hard into virtual sessions as much as possible beforehand. [/quote]
