What are your general comments?
I arrived at the school a little before 8 and went in and received a nametag. We sat in a conference room and chatted amongst ourselves until the student tour guide came and got us. Then we toured the school. Then we sat in a conference room and listened to a bunch of different informaitonal type things while each person got pulled out of the room to interview. After that we had lunch with a few students and then left.
