[quote=Anonymous]Schools can (and do) waitlist & reject AND have below-target enrollment for a grade at the same time. Maybe the incoming K group is 60% boys and the waitlist is also predominantly boys, and they want to balance that out with new girl applicants before going back to the waitlist. They may have a 9th grade class that has maxed out some languages and math classes, and too many kids on the current waitlist want to take Algebra 2 and Spanish. Or maybe they have some strong students on the waitlist who need significant financial assistance, and they'd need to balance that our with students who need less or no aid before admitting them. I'm making this up, obviously. All this to say, SSSAS could have a waitlist and be advertising for K at the same time because the students on the waitlist don't meet the needs for that grade right now. If you have a student who fills a need, there's no reason not to let them apply now instead of making them wait a year![/quote]
