[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]WE are applying. Some schools don't even ask for DC to fill out a single thing. Other schools have us write more essays than DC. They are definitely looking for families and make that clear in all of their paperwork and on their website. [/quote] Younger child? For HS kids, THEY have essays. Parents are not supposed to help.,[/quote] Middle school. For all of the schools, we have to write more than ods. I don't know about the high school process for all of them but at one of them, parents write more than kids. We are letting ods write his own essays, unless he just does one paragraph and calls it finished. The schools were sent his essay from the ISEE so they will already know what his writing looks like with no spell check or adult guidance. Like one pp, a school has the kids also take a test on the shadow day. I don't really understand that because they also require the ISEE. I don't know why and it really turned me (and ds) off the school. [/quote]
