I thought that public schools had to take any child that lived in their boundaries. Isn't that why we pay taxes to our local schools! It does make sense to me that the charter, magnet and private schools would refuse to that the kids in the middle of the year. Even if there was an opening, they probably figure that the kids don't HAVE to start mid-year and that it would be disruptive for all. Relocating kids, on the other hand, don't have a choice. I've heard many private school admissions directors comment that they appreciate it when out of town private schools accept their departing kids mid-year and they all try to work together to take care of these students when they have to move. Deborah,

Since I homeschool, I'm not aware of all of these steps you have to go through just to get your kid in school. I've got a friend in the city who decided to take a respite from homeschooling. It was in the middle of the year, and she couldn't get her kids in school because they were all full. She tried public, private, and charter schools. Her husband teaches for STL city schools and she still couldn't get in in the middle of the year. <abbr><em>Deborah Allinder Lee’s last blog post..<a href="http://ourmusicalhome.com/blog/2008/12/a-few-money-saving-christmas-tips-and-a-contest/" rel="nofollow">A Few Money Saving Christmas Tips and a Contest</a></abbr></em> This looks like some great information.
