[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't count on it. The schools don't really have any incentive to take from their wait lists: it risks overcrowding the classrooms if they get new in-bounds students during the year, and the kids might have special needs or bring down the test scores or be disruptive (and before you say that of course your kid wouldn't, they don't know that and they can't pick and choose).[/quote] Yes, these schools get a lot of new kids from official enrollment day until almost the of the school year. A kid moves into the boundary and they have a right to the school and the school must make room. So they end up with large classes and no room for anyone via the lottery. [/quote]
