A Kindergarten Admissions Director Asks... with Babby Krents
What questions do you ask a four-year-old to determine if they’ll be a good student at your school for the next thirteen years? Wait, back up. What questions do you ask a four-year-old, period? And even scarier - what questions do you ask parents at their most nervous, to get an accurate sense of who they are?
There’s one person who knows the answers to these questions better than anyone, and that’s Babby Krents. Babby has been the Head of Admissions at The Dalton School, a private K-12 school, for the past 30 years. Once named “the most powerful person in New York City” by a former editor of the New York Times, Babby has interviewed thousands of children and parents. In fact, Antonia was one of them! Listen to their illuminating and hilarious conversation to get a glimpse into the crazy world of kindergarten admissions in NYC.
