[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe there is some standard way of informing parents about their chances of getting in BEFORE the open house, and BEFORE they do their lottery selections. Could they add a column on the myschoolsdc site? They have a lot of information on there for all of the schools, but no standard piece of data for % accept rate.[/quote]

I think it would be very helpful for each school to state what waitlist # they were on as of count day for each grade, as well as how many IB/OOB/sibs etc. were accepted as of count day. [/quote]

I don't think schools will share this info, because from what I've heard there are sometimes work-arounds that happen where the school doesn't follow the waitlist to the letter.[/quote]

The Cap City administration representative at the charter school expo said there were going to be audits this year throughout the year to make sure that the waitlist was being properly followed, for any school participating in the common lottery. [/quote]
