apple17 - I’d consider you far ahead of the other parents. The faster you move out of selection mode, the faster you can take pride in the experience your child is about to have. It sounds like you’re there and the others aren’t.
Odds are if they are still in selection mode, they haven’t done enough research or think the schools are so drastically different there is going to be a major difference in the outcomes the schools offer. Truth is, it means they are less prepared than you and your son.

Your mind was at Orientation and their wasn’t. Their loss. good luck with everything and I wish your son the best. :)
