[quote=Anonymous]I’m having a hard time understanding how you’re ending up here. Is the backup public? Is the thinking “I want to give public a try?” Is the thinking save money for a few years? See what your child needs? Why were you looking private in the first place? You have the right to do whatever you want just tell the school the truth. “We have some financial concerns about affording this excellent school through 12th so we are going to get on a savings plan and re-apply in a few years. The school doesn’t owe you another chance but I don’t believe they would just scratch you off the list. Be honest when you re-apply “we have had time to save and we know DC needs are met at this school.” I have a DD who is not following her sister to an all girls school - yet. She is happy at her public elementary. The school knows she has a sister but never asked or mentioned her. We will likely make a shift in middle if we can afford it and she wants. But I don’t think the school would shut us out because we didn’t put her in asap. This is similar but not the same as your concern. When you’re ready, go through the process again. [/quote]
