Atlanta Independent Schools: Treat #5: Visit Schools on Your List

Today’s treat will help you streamline all information that you’ve identified and collected over the past few days. If you’re just tuning in, here’s a brief recap of the treats we’ve shared over the past week.

Treat #1: Trust the Journey

Treat #2: Values

Treat #3: Mine for Meaning

Treat #4: Compile Your List

Be sure and check out previous blog posts to learn more about the treats above, depending on where you are in the school search process.

Today, we want to share what to look for as you visit schools on your list. By now, your “short list” should have about 4-6 schools written on it.

• On your Ravenna portal, add those schools to your profile so you can access upcoming Open House dates.

• As a family, virtually visit all schools on your short list. Open Houses and Info Sessions give prospective families a broad overview of campus life by providing a snapshot of programs and offerings. This experience allow your family to spend some quality time on campus.

• Arrange to participate in Zoom small group tours and breakout sessions to get an inside look at school culture, school/life balance, and student life.

Join us tomorrow as we unpack the complexities of Ravenna!
