[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How hard is it to get financial aid at Cap Hill Day School? Anyone think we have a good shot at 50% tuition with a HHI of $145 K?

If we don’t get Brent or FA at CHDS we will likely move to a 2 bedroom condo WOTP so we can send our son to J/L/Mu/Hearst with feeder rights to Deal/Wilson. We love the Hill but don’t have confidence in the schools. [/quote]

This is such a weird post. Are you in-bounds for Brent? If so, you'll get in for K at the latest. If not, you won't get in, but there are other very good schools all across the Hill for which you may be in-bounds (Maury, Peabody, etc.) or for which you can enter the lottery (SWS, CHML).

If you are looking for PK3, it's not like you'll have that at any of the schools WOTP, so why no wait until your kid can go to Brent?[/quote]

NP here - what about schools like Payne and Tyler? How are they doing? Why not include those in your list?[/quote]

Those were on our list when we did the lottery years ago. But did you read the first post? If this person really thinks it's Brent, CHDS, or nothing, I'm guessing she has no interest in Payne or Tyler.[/quote]

Payne had to open up a 3rd classroom to handle all the inbound PK3 kids last year.  I think that opened up a few spots for OB kids but most of them were OB siblings.  You might get in off the wait list as just OB close to the start of school but it will probably depend on if they have 2 or 3 classes next year.  [/quote]
