Hi,
Wondering about revisits. We are going to two schools. What should the kids wear? Just match the dress code, or dress up a little?

For the kids, match the dress code. I think it helps the kids “try on” being a student there. As for the parents, you’ll see everything. My priority was comfortable shoes.
Agree with @AppleNotFar . Also bring rain gear and and an umbrella. It was wet and sloppy out in the NE last year and it’s not unheard of for snow in late March/early April. Prepare to stand in lines and re-connect with coaches before hand if you’re interested in particular sports. They may reach out already and your DS/DD will likely get an email from students, teachers or coaches. Have fun. It’s all about fit now.
@Cascade07 Good call about the rain gear and umbrellas! We had it two years ago as well, so tis the season! We connected with coaches before, during and after the revisit days so I would be prepared to stay on a little longer after the posted end times.
Good advice esp. for kiddo who wears only athletic wear and will be visiting two schools with a more formal dress code. We were scrambling last year for interview clothes.
Thanks to all for the advice! We are really excited!
I was worried this thread would go down the path of the move-in attire thread…whew
It’s still a young thread @buuzn03 !! You just know that when I wrote my first reply here all I could think about was @momof3swimmers
The damn tennis skirt and ivy school shirt =))
Where can I find the move-in attire thread?? Sounds like a fun one…
I tried searching for “move in” and all I got was a bunch of threads skieurope moved :((
I’ve got my bikini top ready! We must horrify all children at any cost!
What about all the equestrian attire and not a horse in sight?
@dramakid2 I think it was drop-off day…I’ll try and locate it for you. Hysterical–that was the first moment I realized that @PhotographerMom and I had kindred spirit spouses!
Happy reading!!!
@buuzn03 You mean Spaulding and the bucket hat ?
PhotographerDad and buuzn03Dad need to get accounts here.
Good job @buuzn03 —I looked too to no avail, same trouble as @dramakid2 .
@ChoatieMom : No. Absolutely not . LOL.
@buuzn03 thank you that is a great thread!!! =))
I’ve always thought this form (created by Emma Willard) was a good starting point in terms of thinking of ways to evaluate the schools you re-visit:
