[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like the campus has amazing resources. Be careful, though, about the school culture at fancy privates. Read the parent handbook carefully. (Is there an honor council? Do the students have rights if they are falsely accused? How have they handled bullies?) Read the student newspaper carefully. (Does the school have strong political leanings? Would people of diverse backgrounds be comfortable here?) Ask for details about the curriculum. (Who chooses your child's courses? How do they handle out-of-level placement?) See if you can arrange to talk to some families who have left the school. [/quote] These are wonderful suggestions, thank you. I’ve been dazzled, but I need to think critically. [/quote]
