[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't believe that is accurate re: Dora Kennedy. Our son was 94 on the online wait list. We just received a letter saying he is wait list spot 4. That leads me to believe they only let 90 kids in initially. [/quote] Not necessarily. The way the lottery works is that it doesn't include the kids that are sibling placements. It also doesn't take into account the people who have several placements. You can't state a preference, so they just choose a placement for you based on school needs. As an example, when the Spanish Immersion schools first opened, they placed people who listed SI as a choice there first. So it is really hard to figure out what's what from those raw numbers.[/quote]
