[quote=Anonymous]Poster who asked about FA — fwiw, I’d suggest trying to make sure your kid doesn’t feel too stressed/distressed about the outcomes. We know plenty of families at our K-8, likely full pay, who are disappointed with results. It was a tough year. Remind your kid that the schools have few spots and are looking to balance their classes a certain way — along gender or specific athletic/extracurricular lines — so a rejection does not speak to his or her actual abilities and potential. There is some randomness inherent all this. I do think the reality is that (all things being equal) needing FA can be an obstacle and certainly would be easier to be full pay. But the important thing to emphasize to your kid is that it’s no reflection on their abilities or potential. [/quote]
