For Everyone:
Please try to keep your stress about your child’s visit at a low level. If we know anything about children (and we think we do!), we know they are capable of a wide variety of behaviors. Meeting them helps us achieve our goal of creating diverse, heterogeneous, and balanced groups of children and families.
If you are located outside of New York and a visit to the area is not possible for you, please be in touch to make arrangements for a virtual student visit.
