High School Admissions 101 (2020)

Join NPN as we partner with Grace Lee Sawin of Chicago School GPS for a seminar aimed at parents seeking school search guidance beyond elementary school.

This session covers these topics and questions:

  • An overview of Chicago's public and private high school admissions process 
  • How do I choose a good school fit for my child?
  • What are the criteria for the various public and private high school programs?
  • Tips on navigating virtual open houses during the pandemic 
  • What should I know about the GoCPS application process?

Please note this presentation starts around the 5:30 mark as there were a couple of audience members with audio issues in the first few minutes.

About the speaker

Grace Lee Sawin, Chicago School GPS: Not being a native of Chicago, Grace Lee Sawin had no idea how daunting it would be to find a great school fit for her girls. She quickly discovered how confounding the process was. After years of research and a few different schools for her daughters, she founded Chicago School GPS to help other families successfully navigate the ever-changing Chicago school landscape, from preschool to high school.
