| Holton took A LOT of girls last year for the 4th grade class. my guess is that there were only a few spots for 5th this year. |

| They took two that were "exceptional cases". No real spots available. Almost 100% sure they won't got WL. Look to next year.. |

I was also told this and that there would only be spots available if attrition, so knew it was an extremely long shot. Luckily NCS came through

"Celebrities" and sometimes relocations. |

Yes. And people who left due to Jobs and are retuning to DC. Diplomats. Children and grandchildren of board members. |

LOL I'm thinking the same thing because right now my daughter is hurt. We will get over it and I'm somewhat relieved that I don't have to pay tuition ?. It's a great school and we really wanted to attend for middle school. |
