Some people immediately accept. With me there may be a conversation or two that needs to be had first.

Yard signs go in after family commits to school- never before. If they’re even doing yard signs this year. My humble guess is that many schools will do this every year now. I hope I’m wrong. It’s not that it’s that big of a deal- I don’t know why I don’t like them. My kids were in long before this started with the pandemic and I appreciate why they started doing it.

I really don't want that. I'm a pretty private person and don't want my neighbors having that info or other parents judging our house/yard/car.



Yard signs for current students was a thing during lockdown.

But admissions? Ew.


some schools definitely did it
My neighbor had a "future grasshopper" or some such thing from GDS in their yard.


Wait. before the family accepts? That is weird

I think it’s likely after they accept. Maybe they passed them out in late Spring?

Yes I’ve seen the “future” xxx in a few neighborhoods yards before
