Tips for sorting through Charlottes public school opportunities
Sending a child off to school for the first time can be a challenging experience. Factor in the number of choices, and the process can be quite confusing. Each child has specific needs, and it is important to choose the school that suits your child’s learning style, as opposed to following the lead of those who have gone before you.
WHAT’S IN A PROGRAM?
Some schools, like Montessori programs, encourage families to adhere to the same sorts of philosophies at home in order to maintain coherence in each facet of life. Magnet programs, such as learning immersion and talent development, may require extra out-of-school work time. Some schools, like the Basic School, allow for more time outside with unstructured play, while STEM programs focus on technology and technical sciences.
Special Programming
Support for gifted and talented students, as well as special education services are important to consider. Will your child be interested in extracurricular activities before or after school? Many schools offer performing arts, STEM-related activities, sports, Girls on the Run and other activities. While you may not know what your kindergartener’s interests will be later, being aware of what schools offer can be helpful as kids grow older.

A Cool Girl's Bedroom
WHEN DESIGNER JACY PAINTER KELLY, owner of Jacy Painter Kelly Interiors, took her family to New York City last summer, her 10-year-old daughter Lucy went crazy for the cool urban vibe of their downtown hotel room. It gave Lucy the itch to makeover her own bedroom in their Fort Mill home. She wanted more mature accents like silver wall sconces and velvet pillows, paired with punk rock elements like a graffiti-inspired bed frame and pink neon sign. Luckily her designer mom knew exactly how to tie it all together.
