[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1:28 back. Well all I can say is that my neighbor's kid had 33 children in his class on the first day, so his mom got on the phone and dialed every single private in the area to find out if they had any last minute "no-shows" and could they interview immediately for immediate placement. [b]They wound up within the week at a very good private elementary school[/b][/quote] Our principal calls 32 the "magic number." If a class enrollment gets to 32, he adds a class/teacher to reduce the ratio. Some families enroll at the very last minute. So if you walk in on day 1 and see 33 students, there's a good chance you'll see 16 students in a new classroom next week. Yes, it's not perfect but public schools can't say "we're full" to late-comers. [/quote] This sounds like a total hoax-all of the "very good privates" also have long waitlists they would go to before taking a kid off of the street unless the family is connected somehow.[/quote]
