[quote=Anonymous]You can call the school if the appeal is successful and ask for a tour. Really, the most useful part of the orientation was that DC got to go around the school (not our base school) and got to see that some friends would also be going. In your case, I wouldn't take your DC in case the appeal isn't successful. The other helpful part of the orientation was that the teachers told us to tell our kids that making mistakes was expected and that it really promotes learning, and isn't something to be upset about. They also said if homework was taking too long, it was ok to stop and write a note saying that. I can't remember what they said about learning multiplication table before hand, I think some say yes and some say no, but I found that knowing the tables in advance made things easier for DC. Beyond that, I can't remember anything from the orientation, so I don't think it's a big deal to miss it. Good luck with the appeal. [/quote]
