[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hmm, flippant would probably be a better descriptor than shitty. There was no real insult to Van Ness except the assumption that the IB Brent kids would return to Brent for K. And I assume many will. That cohort might end up pretty huge for Brent as most of the Appletree kids will return as well. The waitlisted cohort entering K this coming year dispersed to the winds with relatively few starting at Brent, leaving a fair number of spots for OOB kids. But so far this doesn't seem like the case for the rising PK3 group.

There also seems to be a lot less bitterness with this new waitlisted group. Maybe because ALL non-sibs were waitlisted and they knew that would happen going into the lottery. Van Ness being there so close by is huge too.[/quote]

Will there be much larger K classes in two years at Brent when the PK3 IB non-sibling kids show up?  Could another K teacher be added to keep class size down?[/quote]

I don't see much larger K classes in two years.   Brent won't need to add a K teacher.  There are already three classes, meaning that up to 75 in-boundary kids can easily be accomodated.  The 2015 PreK3 cohort is roughly the same size as that from 2013 (in the low 70s), and Brent wound up auctioning off OOB seats this year.  [/quote]
