Which is correct, you will find or you will consider?

Question

What is the correct way to write the following sentences? 1. We hope that you will consider the school welcoming, willing to listen and willing to respond to your questions. 2. We hope you will find the school welcoming, willing to listen and willing to respond to your questions. The second sentence is my attempt. The first sentence is my principal's attempt.

Answer 1

While both answers sound very polite, your principal's answer is worded best. To consider means to think about carefully but mostly refers to a time when making a decision. The way you are using it would rather be how one feels about something. Choosing the right words to best express your thoughts is important. You don't just want your parents to think about your school being welcoming and willing to listen and respond but you want them to find the school that way upon arrival.
