It's such a numbers game. Some classes have more openings than others and it's all a gamble. I hope your dd gets off of the wait list.

I am sure you are the only parent calling today to inquire about decisions . . .


Did they give you any indication that she wouldn't get in? I would have expected them to be open about that decision in advance.


Completely the opposite actually.


I'm so sorry. That doesn't make any sense.

OH boy, you gave a lot of details of who you are in your post! I doubt the school WL many students with current sister in its HS.....

I keep seeing the heading of this thread and imagining it says something about the Middle Finger, because that's what we have gotten from Holton every time we have applied.

Hate you are dealing with this as a current family. It does make me feel better though. I feel really rejected. It's such a odd feeling. We both just loved Holton and put all our eggs in one basket! We will try again for High School.


Thanks. It was pretty cold.

Accepted yesterday by call, and was told they had put decisions in mail. Hard to say from outside definitively they're done calling, but would assume they are (unless your number was entered incorrectly, etc.).

Sorry.


Any mention of when they put decision letters in the mail? I am just wondering if we should be expecting a letter in today's mail or if we are going to have to wait until latter in the week. All this waiting is killing me!

I'm sad too. Not accepted for 7th. I'm heartbroken for my DD.
