[quote=Anonymous]This is complete hogwash, having been on the board of one of the highly selective PK-12 schools sought after. Sure, a letter from a board member that knows an older kid in particularly really well might be a slight positive all else being equal, but not a "gee I know this 4 year old having seen her once at the pool and she seems well-behaved", that is just absurd. A 7th grader, really really doubt it. Any board member that starts trying to make demands like that would not be long for the board. As someone said, with say 6 -12 openings or so at most of these schools for MS, or 20-40 for high school, or 10 or less for P or K not counting siblings, how could the above "urban legend" possibly be true?
