[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My understanding from past SSSAS parents it that the school visit is to gauge whether the child can follow directions, separate from parents, display basic good behavior and politeness, and not be disruptive or draw attention to him or herself in a negative way, e.g., ignore instructions, refuse follow directions, refuse to participate or disregard teachers requests, etc. I think they know that children at age 4 aren't all going to be at the same level re: writing name, IQ games, etc. I think it's a general personality assessment of the child and whether they will fit in and not require too much disruptive attention, if that makes sense. I don't think it matters if your child is either overly outgoing or shy, just as long as they follow directions, respond to teachers, participate, and show a good effort.[/quote]
So if a child happens to have an off day with listening, parents will never know it and the child will not be accepted, despite a good-to-great teacher rec and all other positive things?!?[/quote]
