[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was told by someone in the know that for PK and K, they admit only enough to fill the spaces, and then go to the waitlist only if someone turns them down. Makes sense because the PK and K admit pool is so small.[/quote] Yes, for private schools that advertise smaller class sizes, it would be a huge issue IMO if the historical yield rate was wrong one year and they ended up with class sizes of 25 kids or something. Especially Sidwell where I thought it was so odd that the classes still had over 22+ kids. It's not student:teacher ratio that matters- it's the absolute number in the class. And that's for 34K...[/quote]
