[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know there is another post asking this (I made it but received no responses) so I thought I would ask it here since there seems to be more traction on this thread.

Does anyone know if Beauvoir has gone to its Waitlist or if they will and if so, when do they typically start? We are currently wait listed and pretty bummed we didn't get a spot. We have been praying a spot will open up but thus far we have heard nothing. [/quote]

Hello. I am sorry you did not get a spot. I would call the admissions office and ask politely whether there is any hope of a spot opening up for you and let them know that if one opens up you will take it. Good luck. [/quote]

Beauvoir first goes to its waitlist in March when deposits are due,  However, a number of people put down deposits but then later decide not to attend.  The tuition deadline is in July, so theoretically you could be admitted off the waitlist through then.  However, most of the waitlist movement will occur in Mach and early April.

We are a Beauvoir family and love it.  However,mplease know there are many wonderful schools out there where your child will also thrive.  [/quote]

Thanks. We do have a backup that we paid a deposit to. We are however prepared to walk away from it if we get off the WL. Worse case scenario we will reapply again next year. We think we got so close but no cigar because our DC is a late birthday 4yr old (right on the line of meeting the age cut off for PreK). But DC is mature (at least to us) so we hoped it wouldn't count against us. Who knows. Of course you run through a million scenarios about why something might have happened. [/quote]

Come to a place of peace with the other school.  Beauvoir doesn't love to take a young birthday and in any event the wait list has settled.  If the other school is a good fit for your kid, don't yank them out next year just because you have decided that Beauvoir is where YOU want to be.[/quote]
