[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's really nothing magical about these open houses. They separate parents and children. Children get a 5th Grader led tour, and Q&A with some 5th Graders. Parents get to see the 4th Grade Teachers, and have a tour (including walk through of a 4th Grade class), presentation, and Q&A with the principal and teachers. Decisions shouldn't rest on the open house, unless you are somehow concerned about the physical plant of the school building. Ask your contacts, instead. [/quote] Our dd got in to Barnsley off the wait list at the very last minute before 4th grade -- like, no more than a week before. We called the school, and we were able to set up a meeting with the principal -- he was fantastic about showing us around, answering our questions and my daughter's questions, etc. Even though she didn't get to go to the open house or meet the teachers and current students ahead of time, being able to see the school and talk to the principal was very helpful in allaying her concerns. I agree that the open house shouldn't be a make or break part of the decision.[/quote]
