This is why people should put their lists in their actual order.

If you wanted immersion, you got it this year... somewhere.

If you wanted Montessori, you got it this year.... somewhere.

ITS waiting until August to make any waitlist offers probably caused some of this.


And it feels shady / manipulative.


I don't see what's manipulative about it, but it was a stunning drop and I would have much rather switched DC over before school began.

Way more offers than last year at ITS and MV both.

Hyde-Addison made 117 K offers? I wonder how many of those people will stay when they move out of the swing space next year
