As many of you know, we are in the research phase for DD. We were interested in completely different schools for her than DS and given our location, trying to maximize our ability to experience a variety of schools. Hence, looking for fairs. The closest ones are still over 6 hours away from us. Being that it will be a full day travel commitment, I’m wondering what we should expect from such a fair, and how we should prepare. Our intent at this time is purely to research and get exposure to schools.
Should we be prepared for interviews at this time?
Should she have basic information readily available?
Can we just window shop?
Is it worth a 6 hour one-way drive to go or are there better options?
TIA!
