Do your research on your school options. Visit schools, ask questions, observe the students, ask about test scores, policies, etc.
It is equally important to find the right environment and fit for your child’s personality and learning style. If your child is hyper and needs to move around, expect a lot of discipline if you put them into a super strict classroom where they have to sit still for eight hours a day. Visual learners, auditory learners, hands on kinetic learners…each is valid and should be considered as you search for the right school.
