What is Private School Preview?
Attending the Private School Preview evening can be an incredibly valuable experience for parents who are considering sending their children to private schools in the Dallas area. This event is specifically designed to help parents navigate the often confusing and stressful private school application process. The keynote speaker this year, Cindy Newsome, has a wealth of knowledge and will speak generally about the process and what to expect.
One of the great benefits of attending this event is the opportunity to connect with other parents who have already gone through the process of applying to private schools. PHECA will provide parents with a contact list of members who have kids attending private schools and have volunteered to be a resource to answer questions. This can be an incredibly helpful resource for parents who are feeling overwhelmed and unsure where to start.
