[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there are a lot of families that find things like "atelieristas" "Reggio Emilia" "Love Fairy" and a gala/auction off-putting, or at least not particularly appealing and not worth commuting past a lot of other schools for. How available are before and aftercare? Is breakfast and lunch free for everyone? Are there classroom/activity fees? Do the kids seem respectful of the adults or do they talk back? Not saying all families use all of these criteria but these are some things that families I know care about. [/quote]

Another former long-timer SWS parent - before and after care are available and have lots of activities, breakfast is free for all but lunch is not, the kids are respectful. The school has a lot of rules that are inviolable - if you are late to school in the morning you must wait in the hall with a parent until morning meeting is over (30-40 minutes), no nuts at all in the building. But then again they always have babysitting (for a fee) for PTA meetings.

It's a great place, but it really works for parents who have flexible jobs.[/quote]
