School Tours

The whole starting kindergarten thing here is rather crazy. We've got school choice here....which basically means, we can elect to have Lolo attend any school in the city. Here's where it gets tricky....I've got to tour and evaluate each one. So, we've narrowed down our list to six.
I visited our first choice today....a chinese immersion school. Frankly, unless the others blow our socks off, this will be our first choice (provided she can get in when we apply...they have a wait list and kids get in via a "lottery"). I'm not sure how families with both parents working full time manage to do this. The tours are typically in the morning between 9-10am. Plus, the busing situation is pretty complicated. I forsee a lot of chauffeuring in my future.
So, one school tour down...five more to go.
