[quote=Anonymous]Waitlists start over each year now. It's unlikely that more than 1-2 kids from any elementary pool of 2-5 kids at H-B will transfer back to their home MS or move out of APS in a given year. When they had a single waitlist for each school for all three years, my kid was #5 and got in in 8th grade, and that was pretty unusual -- I knew plenty of people who had kids at #2 or #3 from their school who never got in. And since you start over every year now, even if you are #2 or #3 for 6th grade, you might move way down in the countywide list for 7th or 8th if you reapply. (Or, if you are low on the 6th grade list, you could move up--but there may be very few openings in later grades. I think last year there were 0 openings in 8th.) TL, DR -- unless you are #1 or #2, you probably shouldn't get your hopes up, and even then it's kind of a long shot. [/quote]
