[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i have one kid who is thriving at Walls and my 8th grader didn’t get an interview. My younger is a wonderful, smart, kind and athletic kid. I guess i can take solace in the fact that they will likely thrive anywhere.[/quote]

So no sort of sibling preference? If. Kid had a high gpa and a sibling at walls, I think that younger sibling should get some sort of bump. SWW is a citywide school and making it easy on families by allowing their kids to attend the same school should be factored into the calculations. No dog in this fight. Just my opinion. And I'm not suggesting younger siblings that don't have a high gpa should get special treatment. But sibling preference should be worth a point or something in the calculation. [/quote]

That would make some sense but doesn't for families with 12th graders and 8th graders (our situation and looks like one from family above).  No bump b/c you won't have two kids there at same time so you don't have the logistical issues.  I do think they give some preference if you are going to have two there at same time (pretty sure we heard that at open house).[/quote]

I see someone above said no sibling preference at SWW.  So maybe I'm misremembering from the open house.  But it's definitely the case of no sibling preference if they're not both there at same time.[/quote]
