[quote=Anonymous]Lots of kids can’t get into PK3 without a sibling at the most sought after Hill schools (used to be even more true when the ECE population on the Hill was higher), so transfer in PK4 or K to where they always wanted to go. Some folks try out a thing with a commute in ECE (immersion, for instance, which is not so convenient to the Hill) and then bail because it’s not what they expected or, even more likely, because of the commute and their IB school being good enough (increasingly true of most Hill schools). Other families start at their IB they know isn’t their long term plan (for instance, lots of Miner families end up at Ludlow; lots of Peabody families switch to Brent or Maury rather than head to Watkins). Sometimes a school just doesn’t work out or your realize your priorities in PK3 (great playground!) suddenly seem less important.[/quote]
