[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting, still zero movement on Ludlow-Taylor waitlists. Is this related to delays on the annex construction or increased retention of current families or both? Either way, curious if there will be any movement at all in the next month. If Ludlow goes the way of Maury and Brent, that bodes well for IB buy in at Payne and JO Wilson, because there will be fewer places to bail to.[/quote]

A parent said LT had a late IB boom heading into 2024-2025 that they weren't expecting and to avoid overcrowding for 2025-2026 they planned to hold off on waitlist movement until much later this summer. [/quote]

Interesting. The IB boom is a good sign, IMO. Also likely bodes well for Stuart-Hobson if they are seeing more retention of IB families in 4th and 5th. That used to be when you saw the most attrition and when it was easiest to get a spot at the school.

But I guess the idea is we should wait and see if the lists move later in August or September. Last year they made 16 offers for 2nd grade. I doubt we'll see anything like that this year. Unless you are number 1-5 on any waitlist, I would not count on that one (and even then).[/quote]
