Choosing a private school seems simple enough...

The truth is that choosing a private school is one of the toughest assignments a parent has to face. So much is at stake. Your child's happiness and future success both are impacted by your finding the best school. Here are some facts to consider.

• There are approximately 2,500 independent K-12 schools in the United States.
• Financial aid programs make it possible for qualified applicants to attend private school.
  
• The best school for your child may be one you haven't even heard of.
  

How do you know if your child will get into a specific school? How do you guarantee that your child will get in somewhere? Can you get your child into a private school a couple of months before the new school year starts? What about the middle of the year? What do I do with a child who has discipline and other issues? How do I find the best school for a kid with dyslexia?

That's what I do. I will help you answer these questions and many more which will crop up as you begin the process of choosing a private school.

How do I work? I like to gather some basic information and data about you and your wishes. I will need to have copies of recent report cards and results of any tests such as SSAT, ISEE, etc. Email me in the first instance outlining what you have in mind. If I feel that I can be of service, I will email you back with a schedule of my fees and what I can do for you.

I look forward to helping you navigate through this process.
