Arrow is primarily a one day a week, "drop- off" homeschool program. Being that most classes meet once a week, we are looking for students who are ready for an age-appropriate classroom setting. Our desire is to keep behavioral disruptions to a minimum, and we are not equipped to accommodate severe academic/emotional needs that require modifications for individual students. In your opinion, do you believe this family and each of their applying students are a good fit for our program?*

Yes, I believe they will be a good fit.No, I have some concerns. (Please answer next question)
If you did not answer "YES" above, please explain any concerns you may have in recommending this family's admission to our program. If you have any concerns about one of their students in particular, please share here. If you have no concerns, state "no concerns."*
Do you have any additional comments or observations that will be helpful in discerning the success of this family's participation in our program? If YES, please explain. *
