HOW TO CHOOSE
THE BEST SCHOOL FOR YOUR CHILD:
A PARENT'S HANDBOOK

Parents for School Choice have published a 24-page pamphlet to "help parents learn more about what is taking place in the schools their children attend to help parents evaluate the effectiveness of a school's academic program. It offers tips for locating important information and identifies where assistance can be obtained. The handbook also recommends publications and web sites for more information about educational issues." (p.1) CSF Baltimore encloses a "School Checklist" from the publication to help parents observe what is good and not so good about the schools their children are attending. If you would like a copy of the publication, call our office for your free copy.
