[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why did APS stage the lottery selection on Teams last week??? As a new APS parent, I assumed we'd actually get to see the results, not just an awkward video of people pushing buttons on a screen. It was just baffling. [/quote]

I am not sure of the history here, but I think there was a lot of "omg it's a scandal!" when they held it privately.  So now they do it publicly, but since all students are assigned a random number, it still is not quite "scandal" proof.  Since numbers can be assigned with preference and/or switched around afterwards.

I agree it makes no sense, so I don't pay attention to it AT ALL. I also think it's mostly people who are vying to get into HB that dream up all the conspiracy theories.[/quote]

Wait, I don’t know my number before hand? I’ve never checked but I assumed if I watched the whole thing I would know if I got in or not. Of course people can “come off waitlist” or what not.

We have applied with 3 kids for a bunch of lotteries and got nada for 15 years. [/quote]
