After the longest two weeks of my life, they faxed the results. DD got into our first choice - ps11, so all is forgiven! [ Reply | More ]

When we told dd that we finally knew where she was going to K, she said, "Oh, oh, please, is it the pool school?" (It wasn't, btw, which bummed her out for a minute) [ Reply | More ]

Seems so absurd to me that they have to go to a Round 2 waitlist for gender equality. Does it really matter so much? Couldn't they just jump to the girl waitlist at this point? [ Reply | More ]
