How could they possibly already know about a citywide? Is it Hunter? Maybe their kid scored 99th percentile, and they are hedging their bets???? Anyone know?? [ Reply | More ]

Not Anderson and probably not TAG. I'd bet it's NEST from deductive reasoning. [ Reply | More ]

well, they are downtown (just one factor that may indicate NEST over Anderson) [ Reply | More ]

I"m sure it was discussed to death but I really didn't feel that sorry for them. They were willing to pay full freight tuition for the long term and were fortunate enough to get a city wide g&t spot that they preferred. LREI formed their class based on the assumption their specific dc would attend and even though they can easily fill the spot, they probably "lost" many of the dc they would have put in that spot to other private schools, parents moving etc. LREI forgave them part of the tuition. They should be glad it worked out the way it did. [ Reply | More ]

ita. they should have read the contract more closely. LREI doesn't have a huge endowment the way many other independent schools do-they were just enforcing their contract. the family came off as entitled. [ Reply | More ]
