We didn't apply, because of distance, but we went to the Open House because family members wanted our opinion, and I was super impressed. It seems like such a lovely community. If it was closer to our house, I think it would have been at the top of my own kid's list.

has anyone been waitlisted in the lower school and actually got in?

Can anyone please help me decipher the SSFS rejections for my 2 children? Please be kind. My family is extremely disappointed.

#1: "we are unable to offer [name] admission at this time" and "While you may be disappointed, it is our wish that you will find the school that is the best fit for [name]."

#2: "we are unable to meet your financial request and unable to offer enrollment. All decisions for the 2024-2025 school year are final."

Sounds like they were unable to offer FA for two. They may have figured if they didn't/couldn't accept both you would decline.

We know two families who have not heard. Is this usual?

That is odd. Wouldn't the financial aid explanation for child #2 also apply to child #1?

If you didn’t get in you dodged a bullet. School is very unstable right now
