[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My expectations are VERY low but curious anyways. No sibling preference, 6th grade, pretty sure we'd make the move after the year starts.

To clarify: the low expectations are for our chances to get in anywhere, not related to the Lottery Nerd's abilities to predict.[/quote]

FYI went to a Deal open house a few weeks ago and there will be no lottery spots.[/quote]

Every year I hear Deal is full to the rafters and then I meet another kid in our OOB neighborhood who got in (after NOT going to a feeder). Figured it was worth a shot, but yes, expectations are very low. [/quote]

I also know two families who had a kid go to Deal from our neighborhood, no feeder.

In one case, her parents explicitly told us that she had a pretty serious IEP and was placed not by lottery but by the special education system. I don't know a lot of details about it, but I wouldn't be surprised if that's how the other kid got in as well. I wouldn't say this is common, but I don't think it's rare, and may also describe what happened in your neighborhood. I mean, they've only taken 3 kids via the lottery TOTAL over the past three years. Seems unlikely you know all of them. [/quote]
