You would be suprised at how much intel "some random B" parents have. There's either a leak in the AD's Office, or those pretty ceramics around the school house recording devices . . .


you are just creepy

NP. Okay, so we get that your son was rejected, but do you have to take your angst out on us.


Still too afraid to simply call and ask the AD, huh. That is silly. It is a straight forward question. I bet the secretary would tell you.

There's a higher number of Beauvoir students going this year bc there were a lot of sibs.


Not sure this is true. It could just mean that fewer Beauvoir boys were accepted. At least that's what the Beauvoir rumor mills have been spilling out over the last week . . .


Huh? There is a disconnect here.


There was a high number of Beauvoir siblings to STA this year, and a higher number overall of Beauvoir boys going to STA next year. There may have been fewer non-sib boys accepted this yeay due to the high sib rate, but overall it's a higher number of boys to STA than in recent years.


So how many slots are left over for non-Beauvoir applicants?!

What other blue collar jobs have you seen among the parent body, PP? I haven't seen anybody. Nurse is about as blue collar as it gets.


Nurses have a Bachelor's degree and have to pass Board Certification

You need this information because ? Why the waiting with baited breath? fwiw, if a child is rejected it is highly unlikely that their parent will come on this forum and post it to satisfy your voyeuristic needs.
