[quote=Anonymous]In talking about the Basis waitlist for 5th, I'll point out that yes, the waitlist is moving, and in my experience that is partly because people are turning down their spots in favor of staying at their Dcps for 5th with the expectation that they will go to Hardy the following year. There could be more, but I know of at least 5 families that were either matched in the lottery or have already been offered a spot and declined. I also know that around 20 families at our school didn't even enter the lottery because they already decided that they were a go for Hardy. And I do think it's relevant to point out that families who have been engaged at the elementary level are headed to Hardy. Those are often the same sorts of families who will remain engaged--taking a lead in the website, communications, fundraising, holding admin's feet to the fire on the curriculum and elective offerings, being demanding about discipline and safety issues, etc. [/quote]
