don't be , chill out , everything will be fine and you will find the best more than first one.
have fun in egypt

Hello , dont worry , everything will be Ok , Just ask well , you will find the answer for what you searching for

Hello Holaveronika ,
at the beginning let me welcome you to Egypt , about your question we have 2 kind of schools,  public and private ones,  of course private is better but it's expensive , they have a certain ways to accept your kids including doing interview to your kids and your husband and your self too , I think your kids have a privilege bec. you can speak English and that's will help them so much .
About the videos I don't know my first time to hear about that.
My advise to you and your husband is to search about all schools and target which one you choose,  prepare all documents and come to Egypt before the beginning of the school starts.

Wish you good luck .

Regards
Magdy

so you are staying in California and your husband and children in Cairo ....maybe they wounder who will care for the children since you can only stay 3 months then have to leave......and must get visa on line when they fix it now not at the airport.....and yes unless your children are Egyptian you will have a problem....... other countries do not want Egyptians so now Egypt does not want foreigners any more good and bad for them....
