| Also waiting on Maret’s WL as June 1 deadline looms. Keep hearing covid will move the list but that has yet to materialize from what I’ve read. Seems to me that the covid crisis poses more questions than answers which leads to paralysis rather than bold decision-making. Result: No movement for families waiting. Maybe the run-up to June will change that dynamic but I fear it may not and the summer will be more outcome determinative. That timetable works for public school option families perhaps but not private school families like ours that get locked in on June 1. |
How can you tell she's higher up on the WL? If it's a non-expansion year then she might have a better chance, but like others have said, you might want to call and speak with the Admissions Director. |
| We have spoke to the AD and were added to a "shortlist" because Maret is her first and only choice. |
What does bold decision-making have to do with waitlist movement? |
Nothing. That poster just wants to benefit from the misfortunes of others. Sounds like great Maret material. |
/s for the last bit, because Maret is a great school. |
...that likes to benefit from the misfortunes of others. No sarcasm necessary. The public record is clear. |
I try not to suffer fools but just this once. The stupidity and pettiness of your question doesn’t warrant a sincere response. |
. Right if I were a good person, like you, I’d ignore the prospects of getting my child off a WL. In fact, I’d do that and go one step further....aimlessly troll message boards that apparently don’t apply to me or my family because I clearly have some profound unhappiness in my daily existence. That’s what I’d do instead of write an innocuous post that is only offensive to a mental midget with an huge axe to grind. |
What? I’m serious. Who is making the bold decision? The school? Families worried about whether they can afford it? I don’t see how boldness factors into any of that. You should get some fresh air while you wait for your outcome determinative summer

I don't have an axe to grind. You are the ass who is hoping that those impacted by Covid-19 "act bold" and turn down their spots now, rather than seeing if their situation sufficiently improves over then next month, so you can take their spot before being locked into a contract somewhere else. I truly hope that someday you are in a situation of financial uncertainty, so that perhaps you can gain some perspective. |
I am in a position of financial uncertainty and you are a presumptuous imbecile. |
You don't need to name call. If you are in a financial uncertainty then you remove your children from private school. However, if you can afford private and other luxuries you should have savings for times like this. |
LOL - you must be an idiot! |
The Maret WL rarely moves and this year will be no different. Thinking the status of the economy and financial markets will have an effect on the Maret WL is a mistake. More then at any of the area schools, Maret families are not effected by economic cycles |
