[quote=Anonymous]With enrollment by right as well as the lottery you have to staff to the teacher to student ratios and how much space you have in the building. Imagine a principal gets two and a half classes worth of K students and 30 students on the wait list and by-right enrollment is essentially open permanently, but largely done by mid-June. You want to finish hiring by the end of May. Do you admit the rest of classroom 3, knowing that 3/4 of them will say no? What do you think your retention rate from ECE to K will be, especially given the new montessori charter three blocks away? When is the best time to admit waitlisted kids? Should you advertise or use word of mouth to let neighbors know there are enough K seats if families are interested so more by-right families to enroll? I only know a little of this third-hand, but what little I know leaves me unsurprised that K waitlists don't move quickly.[/quote]
