[quote=Anonymous]I have a rising 4th grader who is happy at our IB school. Every year, we play the lottery out of curiosity, but she's never broken the top 10 wait list for any school since we got into our IB, so it's never been an issue. This year, she was <20 on the wait lists at Eaton, Lafayette, Hearst and Murch. Over the past few weeks, the lists have been moving, such that she's now #6 at Eaton, #10 at Hearst and #12 at Murch and Lafayette. When she was 3/4 and in the lottery, I would have been delighted to see these numbers, but my gut sense is that it's not enough movement. DD is understandably concerned about where she will go to school next year. Does anyone at any of these schools have insights or prognostications about whether she will clear any of these lists? I know it's impossible to tell, but it seems like Eaton being in a swing space is helpful. Her original number there was #17, so she's gone up 11 spots, which I did not think was possible in March when the initial results were released. Also if folks just have thoughts about these schools for upper elementary, I am all ears. TIA![/quote]
