Parent: During applications, I applied to third grade for my child. What are our chances?
Me: Right now? Zero.
Parent: What!? There is no chance of getting in!?
Me: Our kindergartners move up to first grade, and our first graders move to second, our second to third, third to fourth, and fourth to fifth. At this time, there is zero space available in third grade for next year, because our second classes are full this year.
Parent: Why do you take applications for grades with no space?
Me: Because sometimes kids leave our program, and if that happens, I need a to be able to fill the seat.
Parent: I wish I would have known this before I put in an application to your school.
Me: This is all covered on my tour. Did you come to one of our tours?
Parent: No.
Me: Right now? Zero.
