op: No. Just trying to figure out what willo happen at ps9. Will it be filled with sibs and then 99's that didn;t get Anderson or other first choice school? or will it be sibs and 99's who listed it as 1st choice? [ Reply | More

why would that make a difference even if that did happen? if there is a lottery, then the 99 who ends up at either is really a matter of luck of the draw. will not change that both schools get smart, educable kids. [ Reply | More

if you have a 99 sib you would have to put it first or lose the sib preference. [ Reply | More

we actually preferred ps9 to A but put A first because of the middle school. I think the vast majority do that. It isn't like in D2 where it may be more geographically convenient to go to LL. [ Reply | More

we are at ps9, and applied to anderson because of MS. to be honest, we like ps9 much better. the families, the vibe, the kids, the community, local feel, the teachers and the principal. I am sure it will be ffine either way, but I am also sure that if ps9 had a MS, no one, or very few, would apply to anderson [ Reply | More

I think you are delusional if you think that "very few would apply to Anderson" if PS 9 had a middle school (or if Anderson didn't, I assume). [ Reply | More

well, I happen to know a ton of parents doing this, and all say the MS is what is hard not to try for. one admitted she wanted the prestige, but still felt the MS option and avoiding that process in the years to come was reason enough to try. don't think I am delusional, as we are one of the families doing this. Given that you are at neither school, i would say you know very little about how people feel there. [ Reply | More
