I literally had this exact same experience as a prospective employee.

Funny, Field was maybe the only school that treated me with condescension when I toured as a prospective teacher.


That is odd, because that is not the vibe there AT all! I do believe you, but so strange.

Really? I thought GDS was the worst. The parents' interview is so superficial. The open house is PPT slides. No engagement for the kids. But the student visit day, my kid said, was fun. I didn't see the classroom in action at all.

We had a great experience at STA and an equally great one at Landon! We decided to only apply to those, lower school.

Good luck with that.
