I talked to the front desk guy, not anyone in the admissions office. I did not take time away from them addressing your situation. I get that you are frustrated, but there are also many of us that have no real idea how many students have been admitted and our child's true spot on a wait list.

Are you trying to sneak someone slightly too young into pk3 or slightly too old into pk4?


No- there are kids at the same birth month/year. I called about being omitted. The system is dumping our application.

How would I sneak someone in? What kid of question is that?

How much time are those offered spots given to accept?

Now THAT is sibling preference. Welcome!


It is ... although I will say it's usually pretty tough having 3 that close in age (and so young), but it's things like this where it really helps

Hi - could you please explain how/if this would impact PK4? I've read through all 13 pages of this tread and it seems as if it would only impact PK3 despite both PK3&4 being combined classrooms.

Insight greatly appreciate.

Thanks!

We are within 2 of our number from last year - which rounded us out in about the top 5 before movement stopped. If they open a class sounds like it will be the same this year. Ugh! I'd rather have a number in the 400s. Being close but not "in" is super frustrating!

And next week is Spring Break, and it doesn't sound like they are going to be doing any calls until afterwards.
