[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our DD actually did two ‘practice days’ at our lical MCPS last year as we considered taking her out of private. It was good for her to observe what was the same and familiar to her classroom experience and what was different. We did twice as we wanted her to do recess and science and art class (her favorite subjects!) but they hadn’t been scheduled first visit day. The school didn’t allow her to go to lunch but they had her sit in media center office to have a bagged lunch instead (apparently the assigned seating made her being in cafeteria too hard?!?)

Anyway-yes-of course it’s possible to do AND they told us to have her come in before summer to be evaluated so they’d know where she ‘was’ as far as reading and math. We ended up having her stay at the private but having her try public out was invaluable info.[/quote]

You know this was a burden to the school, right? Not just one day, but two?[/quote]

While I’m trying to understand the burden having my child sitting in the class placed on the school-which couldn’t have been too onerous as there were no demands placed by us or objections raised by the school-I’ll remain comforted by the 4 years where my DD could have attended our local public and didn’t-my tax dollars still supported the program....[/quote]
