[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Last year or prior years, anyone knows TJ waitlisted got acceptance? [/quote]

Last year was different. There was a question in the application about free meals which some answered yes incorrectly or accidentally. Those who could not prove were mostly removed and kids in waitlist made in.[/quote]

accidentally *wink* *wink*[/quote

There is nothing wink wink about it.  Students were eligible for free meals, and were getting free meals at school.  Not all parents would be aware of the intricacies of FARMS, and this wasn't what was asked.  I once signed my school up for Title 1 discount accidentally, because I thought Title 1 meant public school.[/quote]

The question literally said if you were eligible for free meals that year or maybe had you gotten free meals that year. 100% of kids were eligible that year and many got them too. We paused on this question since answering it truthfully would be saying yes to those questions. But instead we answered it according to what we figured they really meant. How they handled that was the fault of whoever wrote those questions in a year when all kids got free lunch. [/quote]
