Good questions to ask on a tour

  1. 1How do you balance academic preparation with play and social-emotional development?
  2. 2What are the exact drop-off and pickup times, and is there any flexibility?
  3. 3Beyond the listed tuition, what other fees should I expect (application, deposit, materials, field trips)?
  4. 4How do you handle the transition for children starting mid-year or moving up from a younger classroom?
  5. 5What is your potty-training policy, and how do you support children who are still learning?
  6. 6How do you handle discipline, conflict between children, and big feelings?
  7. 7Does having an infant/toddler program give siblings priority or a guaranteed spot later?
  8. 8What is your application timeline, and when do families typically hear back?
  9. 9How large is each class, and what is the teacher-to-child ratio?
  10. 10What does parent communication look like — updates, conferences, opportunities to be involved?
