[quote=Anonymous]I know that people get bumped down waitlists all the time...it happened to us a couple years ago. Then it was because more IB families applied after the first lottery and they automatically get bumped to the front of the line. And bumping also happens when a child in another grade is offered a spot and accepts it at which point the sibling(s) get bumped to to the top (behind any IB kids). So I know there are legit ways that it happens. OP is talking about a very different situation involving an application high school. Boundaries and IB/OOB should not come into play. I guess it's possible to have something to do with twins but because of the timing (waitlists moving over the weekend when schools aren't open, etc.) my bet is on manual changes. In any case, MSDC needs to be pressed on this to explain because it sounds like a lot of shafting some families to make things right with other families who were also shafted. [/quote]
