[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A skim noted that this was a rumor and then someone said they were told no public lottery. If this had really happened I am sure the general public would have heard about the PCSB investigating and/or reprimanding the school. [/quote]

You're funny!  Hmmm, wonder why they went ahead and joined the public lottery?  Do you really think they didn't get heat from PCSB?  But it is absolute fact that at least in 2012 and 2013 it was NOT public.  I think they may have done a public one earlier this year for the current school year.  Can anyone confirm whether the one held in early 2014 was public or not?[/quote]

I am the poster you are quoting.  I personally attended the lottery in 2014 and it was open to anyone who wanted to attend.  As a previous poster wrote, the kids that are in the upper grade at CMI are not the kids you would envision a school cherry picking.  They appear to be great kids, but are not who you would assume a school would cherry pick.  I did extensive research on all schools I applied to, looking at the annual reports and DCPCSB assessments and I never came across any information regarding this failure to conduct a public lottery.  If it had occurred AND if it was not permissible, it would be documented.[/quote]

What kind of kids would they not want to cherry pick?[/quote]
