[quote=Anonymous][quote]Your admission is exactly why transfers do get accepted (despite claims by the nasty cabal of ladies here viciously trying to keep Maury as some exclusive club). Kids have siblings at the school, kids have after care nearby, kids have grandma nearby, kids have parents that work at the school, kids have connected moms and dads that play tennis with Gentry or Wilson. There are a gazillion reasons why transfers are still being issued and honored.

I don't have any interest in keeping Maury as an "exclusive club."  My child is in an older grade, doesn't have much longer to go there, and we are not having any more kids.  But the fact is, admin transfers are not being granted at the rate they once were into the school, and you can't assume you'll get one without a legitimate reason - which not wanting to go to JH is not.  I don't believe that even having a sibling at Maury who is an admin transfer is generally a sufficient reason any more, although there may be more nuances to it than that.  People should try for whatever they want, but need to be prepared for the fact that they may not get an admin transfer.[/quote]
