Do you volunteer at your child's current school? If not, you should do that. I think there's a spot on the teacher evaluation that asks about volunteering. Schools are always looking for families that will become involved.[/quote] Beauvoir likely accepts no more than about 25% of applicants so yes, chances are your child won't get in. He/she MAY but the odds are against it unless you are a sibling, alumni, or faculty family. Even then, they're not great. If you tell a highly selective school that you are only applying there (they ask where else you are applying) they will think you are crazy or lying. Don't do it. Find at least three that you think would be a good fit, including one that is not so competitive, or be prepared to go public or sit out a year.[/quote]
