If we only want to apply to the “Choice Schools” (and not the SEES), how does one figure out which schools frequently have spots that aren’t filled by siblings and those in the neighborhood boundary? Thanks. I know some schools are very popular and generally fill based on siblings and neighborhoods, but I only know off the most popular ones. Is there a way to figure out what schools generally have openings filled outside of the sibling/neighborhood?
There is unfortunately no central point for that information. You can call the schools themselves to ask if they typically have openings and when they usually notify families if they do.
When you find out, please use this forum to post your findings and it can become a central location for information!
