[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With regard to YY, I'm not a hater, but we will decline a spot if offered (and DH did stand in line at the crack of dawn). I find it very off-putting that at the various events (charter expo, open house) there have never been any parents or educators there to answer questions.  And when I've asked existing parents, some (admittedly, not all) have said, "If you have questions, then go somewhere else.  There are enough people who want the slot that we don't have to explain ourselves to you."  We all take our children's education seriously, and committing to mandarin is a big deal (as YY families always warn on here), so I think it is entirely appropriate that I may have questions for the principal/teachers/parents. I did not appreciate the fact that when I have availed myself of opportunities to learn about the school, those questions have gone unanswered, sometimes with a very obnoxious reply.

Since you are going to decline anyway, how about calling the school and taking yourself off the waitlist. [/quote]

Good question, I have not done that yet because I have been holding out hope that if we actually got in someone might give a crap about answering my questions, and perhaps I would be suitably impressed despite my initial misgivings.  So I haven't wanted to close off the option since many folks do speak so highly of it.  [/quote]
