DS got placed in a D1 g&t program, but we are moving into D2 over the summer. Would the DOE give DS a spot in a D2 school since we have moved? only respond if you know the answer. No speculation, plse [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

unless it's PS 89 or 234 -- then you're screwed because they've shut down admissions. [ Reply | More ]

DOE has already said that unfilled slots will go to those who move over the summer. The only problem you will have is that the only d2 G$T schools that are likely to have spots are the ones in chinatown, so if you are moving to, say, the UES, that is quite far away and you might prefer your zoned school.

why do you say that the only schools that are likely to have spots are those in chinatown? v. coveted spots at those school and most likely oversubscribed. [ Reply | More ]

sorry, not correct. just recently there was a long thread on ps 130 and a parent noted that she was sending her child there. and, even if it were, ub is a small pool of candidates and not representative of district. ps 130 and 124 are sought after schools in the communities they serve and are spots in their g&t classes are coveted by that community. and, all classes were oversubscribed in anticipation that not all offers would be accepted. if i were a betting woman, the better bet would be that there will be spots at ps 111, which is a new program in a school that is seemingly attended by only a portion of the community it serves, with private schools being the option instead.

You are kind of off putting with you no specuation as no on on this board has an answer for you - but this is the sort of thing that DOE will likely not look kindly on. It appears to be "scamming the system". Give it your best shot. [ Reply | More ]
