Saw a couple I know this weekend and they mentioned that they are applying their older children to my DC's school. I asked if they had gotten any letters or if they needed anything, and he replied, "Oh, we don't need letters..." Ick.

Good for them. It's annoying when people use connections to help them get into schools. I'd respect them more for not asking for your help.
[ Reply | Options ]You know what there are a lot of great kids out there who are good candidates but a rec speaks to who the family is and what they are like. The schools are commiting to these families for at least 13 years in many cases and strive to build a cohesive community. The letters help them achieve that goal when they have so little time with so many families.
