[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh, jesus. My kid is a rising kindergartener. Is this really how it works there? What does the PP mean that there are "lotteries" that get rigged? Lotteries for what? And what are the "undesirable" sports teams? It's such a big school that I was figuring there's a social circle of some kind or another for everybody there. I don't need a mean girl high school scene at my age. This is making me feel a sense of dread.[/quote] The lotteries are for the lunchtime clubs if they are oversubscribed and for a few of the very popular after school enrichments. I have never heard allegations the lotteries are rigged but apparently lots of parents have lots of time on their hands. The lunchtime clubs are run by volunteers (parents and teachers). I have had children at Janney for 4 years and this is all news to me so I would not lose any sleep over it.[/quote]
