@Twelfthman You may not feel as equipped to judge, but I really think you are selling yourself short. Your daughter can probably tell quite a bit as well. You could also see if you could bring someone more qualified with you to see a production of a show at one of the schools (if they are close enough) and get their opinion of the performers at a school.
We are also worrying about dance at any school. My D has danced since she was a toddler, and therefore has had many years to rack up MANY injuries, some which are now chronic. She has been super-picky about checking with schools to make sure they take dance classes on sprung floors. Thankfully, most do…but, a few have not. Dancing daily on non-sprung floors is a non-starter for her…she will just not be able to make it for 4 years.
I wish I could fly out there and help you :-). Just use your (and your D’s instincts), and gather as much information as you can.
Best of Luck!!!
