Yes. That is possible but you need the following apart from the extracurricular activity:
1) Good grades
2) Good test scores
3) Good interview
4) Good essays
For example, my son got into PEA but he only started on the saxophone in G6, so he was only a beginner when he applied to the school. My daughter was a beginner in photography, but Milton could see her passion in this and accepted her.

This is possible. You need to do research and there are many places that you can do this.
Find some consultant that is good by word of mouth.

What is the score?
There are schools that will accept a lower score so you need to look at the particular school.
Going there to look is always a good thing as it will give you a perspective where your child stands in the overall pool.

No. But this is not a high GPA. If you are looking to get into a decent college, you need to ask your adviser what you should do this summer to improve your grades.

What do the boarding students do on weekends?
How are roommates assigned?
How is the faculty involved with the students?
Ask about joining different clubs and activities on campus.

Magic School Bus (for younger kids but it is okay for older kids as well). TED Talks for older kids although may be difficult to get in China. For girls, one of my favorite shows that I used to watch with my daughter is Gilmore Girls. Boys can watch some of the Marvel or DC comics TV shows like Flash or Arrow.

Should not be more than 20 minutes away. You don’t want your child to sit in the car the whole day.

Congratulations on your daughter getting into Dana Hall. It’s a really good school. I would wait until the first 2 months after school begins before you decide whether your daughter should transfer to the other schools. Whether your daughter transfers depends on how she does in her new school.
Some more information: Dana Hall School is one of the top all-girls schools high schools in Massachusetts. It has high SAT/ACT scores, low student-teacher ratio. The school receives good reviews from students and parents, and matriculation to many ivy colleges.

Your child needs 100 to get into many of the top schools since everything is taught in English. Please spend time getting the TOEFL up this summer.

No. Absolutely not. That would be discriminatory. Perhaps you can get contact lenses for him.
PS:孩子除了眼睛近視,體育活動,網球、乒乓球、跑步等都較好,有點小小體育運動天賦。
That is very good. Congratulations.
