[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think what Dr. Nattrass did was great. The wealthy Montessori lobby is just mad that puts actual kids in need ahead of the privileged siblings. 
Someone needs to FOIA the stats on Montessori. What percentage of the grade 1-8 kids in Montessori (not all of Drew) are FARMS. I doubt it’s very high.   How many applicants are there truly beyond the ptreschool/K program.  I can’t believe we gave this low demand elementary program prime real estate.  APS needs to take a hard look at them.  [/quote]

Lol, hi tara[/quote]

She doesn't have the power to change the procedure. Maybe AMAC dropped the ball and didn't realize that the policy as written would allow current Montessori Pre-K kids to crowd out siblings? I don't think they have the space to let everyone in, and expanding the program this year isn't feasible given that there's a move happening next year, and then probably again in a couple years. Ultimately, I bet they will let in the handful of siblings. But other private applicants are just going to be out of luck. [/quote]
