Long time lurker/first time poster.

The magnet in our neighborhood advertised a tour schedule in 2012 on their site. I called to come to the final one (on 12/18) but was told it was cancelled. Then, I was told there would be no planned open houses/tours at all in 2013 leading up to the acceptance date.

Is this common among the magnet schools? Or is this just our neighborhood magnet being difficult? We'd like to see the place before committing to it.
