[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The LS head mentioned more than once at the open house that they are "waiting for someone" to write a multimillion dollar check to fund new athletic fields. I thought it was pretty tacky.[/quote] Oh c'mon. I highly doubt he was implying that a donation would get a kid in. Probably just explaining the timing on the upgrade of the fields/facilities. As for the mythical 8th grade applicant from a "certain school in McLean" - sounds like a real long shot. First I don't think repeating 8th grade is exactly a calling card at St Albans. 2nd, 8th grade is not an entry year so unlikely they would take an under qualified candidate at that point (or probably at any point). I know last year the slots for 9th grade were extremely competitive and a number of siblings weren't accepted. [/quote]
