[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. To all the IB parents raising alarm: how do you know someone is a cheat vs lotteried in from OOB? I know of one OOB family at our WOTP school who has a kid here and another at a "rising" EOTP school; lotteried into both. You just don't know. [/quote]

Because these people become your friends. I have OOB friends and it comes up in passing. Parents are also good friends with teachers and administrators. Same thing.[/quote]

What do you mean by "it comes up in passing"?  I just don't buy it. Let's say you make friends with someone. Turns out they live OOB, and you ask them how they got into your WOTP school. They reply, "we got lucky" and end of story. Do you keep digging? Why?

As for the teachers and administrators... does this really come up? "Hey, have you met so-and-so's parents? Do you know where they live? I don't see them at our playground too often." Really?

EXACTLY. You say we got lucky, people assume lottery and how will anyone else know? Unless the admin in the office is being nosy and gossipy about addresses. [/quote]
