<p>OP – My suggestion is to try to visit schools that interest you now. Some will allow you to visit now through perhaps mid-May without having an interview. Of course, you should only visit the schools that you haven’t already seen. After visiting, think about whether or not the school is a good match for you. If it is, start thinking about why it is a good match. What do you want to do there? What value can you add to the community? If you know how you can add to a school community, you will be a stronger candidate next year. Of course, you don’t have to visit a school to think about that, but I think it helps. </p>
<p>I’m glad that you are broadening your search. A carefully selected school list should give you choices next year. If you have any questions about Blair, feel free to ask me here or pm me. I have a child who attends, and it is a wonderful school.</p>
