| Low waitlist numbers at Bruce Monroe, West, Powell, Marie Reed but not seeing any movement. Anyone else? |

| I've seen no post May 1 movement either. Called enrollment coordinator who only was willing to verify they had my info but that's it. Sigh. |

| We also have low numbers at Powell and Marie Reed, and have seen no movement. |

| We moved up 1 for CMI. Nothing else has budged. |

| Hmm, you moved up one for CMI for PK3 and our CMI number has not moved at all for same grade. None of this makes sense. |

That is odd--we've moved up three spots for PK3 at CMI. |

Are you seeing that movement in the numbers on the my school dc site?
Just found out Bruce Monroe has offered spots up to number 8 on the waitlist. |

It could make sense -- it all depends on your position on the waitlist. Improved waitlist numbers don't necessarily mean that someone at the front of the waitlist was offered a spot (in which case yes, everyone's number should get better). It also could mean that someone in the middle of the waitlist was taken off because they accepted a spot at a school they ranked higher (or, I suppose, informed the school they no longer wished to be included on the waitlist). So in the latter situation, if the person who was removed from the waitlist was #35, but you are #20, your waitlist number will not change -- the only people who will see an improved position will be the people who were behind the person who left the waitlist. |

| Higher WL numbers generally have more movement than lower numbers as explained by the reasons in post 11:54 and also because of sibling preference, i.e., a child getting into another grade at CMI would then pull their sibling in PK3 up to the top of the WL. |
