lower tier private, which will be a stretch, and we are not even that excited about it from the standpoint of peer group and academic rigor. [ Reply | More ]

Move on. Accept where your kid is going to school and be happy for your child. Did I say move on? MOVE ON! [ Reply | More ]

Not upset. Sad. Would have LOVED it there and know that DD would have too. DD 99 SB dinged at round 2 for H, VERY high scoring 99 on OLSAT/BSRA, were hoping for A. [ Reply | More ]

My bf's dc got Anderson and I can't really talk to her much. It's not that I'm not happy, but I just don't want to think about it. She asked us to join her family for a picnic last night and I just couldn't got. Fortunately, she seems to be sensitive to this and hasn't mentioned it at all since she first told me. Ugh. This feeling will pass I'm sure. [ Reply | More ]

BTDT-Hunter parent here--I was in your shoes a few years ago. Definitely keep it low key and don't ask where other kids are going. That only makes it look like you are waiting for them to ask where your child is going. Rejoice with your closest friends and family or on anonymous boards like this one, but keep it very low-key with others. [ Reply | More ]

~~also make sure you say "we got very, very lucky" when asked where child is going and not "thank god my little genius is going to a school that will challenge her appropriately" [ Reply | More ]

I have just kept quiet about it. Have not volunteered the info, but all of our preschool friends asked. As the Hunter poster said, I really do believe it was sheer luck. I feel bad that some smart kids we know did not score high enough to have good choices. [ Reply | More ]
