[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Toured the school. Expected to be "wowed" but, meh. Thought the teachers would be more impressive. Staff throughout the open house, tour, etc. seemed so impressed with the place themselves. Just seemed inflated and, well, silly.[/quote] If you don't like the vibe, and had the reaction that you had, just don't apply. It really is that simple. Applications are involved enough that you should not bother to include a school if you did not like it. Not everybody likes every school. If you are on the fence and still somewhat interested, your child may have a different experience when he is visiting (particularly if he is applying for the older grades where there is a shadow day). But honestly, it sounds like you have efectively made up your mind so there's no real decision involved here.[/quote]
