[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You do know your number. Atop Pushing lies. Just because your kid didn’t get in doesn’t mean it’s rigged. Very maga![/quote] Uh. No. No one knows their number prior to “selection”. Been through the hb scam 10 times now across my kids. It is a complete scam. Admin transfers a granted all the time when APS sees they are going to be sued for one reason or another. Just costs about 20k in legal fees and takes a year or two but when they are threatened with a real case they cave. They do not want their precious “lottery” system compromised when a student who needs the smaller classes has a case.[/quote] You have no idea what you are talking about. If they are doing an admin transfer (and no those do not happen all the time), they could just do it. It would not go through the lottery. [/quote] If they did an admin transfer, there would be a paper trail -- hiding it within the lottery, along with the cranky school board members, makes it a "very rare" event or so they claim.[/quote] You don’t even know what an admin transfer is. [/quote] Administrative placement occurs when the parents build a case showing hardship where the child would benefit from the HBW environment because learning disability, bullying, or other defects present at their neighborhood school, and psychologist specify that a school like HBW is only remedy. But feel free to educate me if I am misunderstanding, instead of casting baseless insults. [/quote] I'm not going to educate you. Educate yourself or stay clueless. IDC. [/quote] So I posted my research and thoughtful commentary, and again with the insults. So again, I believe the county hides admin transfers in the opaque lottery process. What a boondoggle, squeaky wheels get private school on taxpayer dime. I’m guessing this strikes a nerve for you because you took advantage? You got yours, congrats![/quote]
