[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Accepted students events are great opportunities to talk to current parents. While the school is not likely to have families there that are disgruntled (and those families would likely not volunteer), as a parent who does volunteer - I try to be very honest. I think it's really important that parents know what they are getting into and determine that their values are in alignment with the school. Nobody wants a situation where a parent feels baited and switched.

When I was doing second visits a year ago, the [b]Bullis show was extremely off putting to me[/b]. But there are some people who loved it. And I love that for them. The school is going to speak to their people - we were just not their people.[/quote]
Could you please explain why? Thank you.[/quote]

Maybe a different poster but we were really put off by the remarks by the Head of School. He seemed like it was all about him. We are looking for a school that is confident in what it offers. A too hard sell is just off putting. It feels like a car salesman.[/quote]
