[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think Inspired Teaching is worried about kids "jumping ship." They have no reason to be worried that they won't fill classes. I think there just aren't that many people leaving the school.[/quote]

They made a decent amount of waitlist offers last year and virtually none this year. I think people are frustrated because they assume these offers will still be coming.  Unless this year is some kind of weird anomaly. But I know families who have in the past got off the waitlist at IT in July and then got off the waitlist at stokes or YY in early august and left, so maybe they are trying to avoid the time waste of orientating families who will leave when other schools' list move. Again, unless this year is some kind of weird anomaly and there is no movement at a school where there has always been some movement.[/quote]

My list for K refuses to budge.  Was last year an anomaly, or maybe this year is? Regardless, seems like it ain't gonna happen.[/quote]

Looking at the 17-18 data, it doesn't seem that different to me.

In both 17-18 and 18-19 there were only 14 new K seats available.  By June in 17-18 they made 0 K offers; by June this year they made 1 K offer.

Obviously we don't know how many the "by August" will say for this year, but last year it was just 14, and they eventually got to 33 by October.

I suppose that could be true.  My middling K number has dropped by 23 spots, which is not inconsistent with the 14 offers in the July window last year.   But I am surprised that it has moved a net of 3 spots in August so far, I was hoping for more.  Actually all my lists are pretty slow this week, I was hoping this would be a week for faster motion.[/quote]
