When you’re searching for a new school for your child, open houses and school tours are two of the most valuable resources to help you decide whether a school is the right fit. Most, if not all, independent schools host one or both of these events to help give parents a sense of what they have to offer. An open house provides parents face-to-face access with administrators and teachers, and opportunities to discuss the school’s educational philosophy, tuition and other topics. A school tour, on the other hand, lets parents and prospective students visit classrooms and explore the campus, observing what the school looks like on a typical day.

Fortunately, public and independent Atlanta schools have procedures in place to deal with the issue, and aim to tackle the problem through their curricula as well.
