[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like some counselors are more accomodating than others.  Try to get one of the helpful ones [/quote]

They are assigned alphabetically. No changing allowed. We also were limited in the number of schools we could review in any one meeting. It wasn’t productive or feasible  to set up 5 different meetings so you could see 15-20 schools over the course of those meetings. It would be more time efficient to just give us the access to the data like they do in some private and public schools. [/quote]

I *get* why they do that, but ugh on the last name assignment. Do they rotate every year or is it always the same counselor who handles A-F?

Saying ugh because one of our DC's was assigned to someone whom we knew would be a disaster, especially not having a good track record working with students in the learning center. School has a no changing policy, but DH lobbied very hard and DC was moved to someone who was much more skilled. We were told that we could not tell ANYONE about the move. And now that it is in the rearview mirror, here I am. [/quote]
