你好,父母!
This edition of our 放置通讯 is intended for both VIth and VIIth Form families. We are beginning to overlap the admissions cycles and there is pertinent information for all. 请参阅每份表格下的相应部分.
In what has not been much of a traditional 新 England winter to speak of and warmth has not been in short supply, 春天的白天确实更长!

We sit on the precipice of what is my favorite season of the boarding school year and yet the hardest as we bring things to a close. Some may say that the robin is the official harbinger of spring- in my world it is March 10th and the decisions that accompany the date. Some decisions will be mailed and other schools will inform you how to manage electronic notification. 我们不知道个别学校的方法.
Admissions Offices continued to feel the ripples of the pandemic and competition remained high. 每年的这个时候推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜家庭带来了一系列的情感. 它既令人兴奋，又可能令人失望. There are many pressures beyond our control that lead to decisions. Each school shapes and builds its community with diverse students with a range of talents. Financial aid decisions also affect admission decisions- even more so this year.
SSAT成绩在很大程度上是可选择提交的, 我们知道老师们的推荐, 学习成绩, 而这次面试将是今年最重要的. 很明显, issues surrounding character and judgment are also playing large in colleagues' minds and the decision-making process.
上个星期在4S班, the Senior Class and I met to review the schedule for admission notification. 我们提出以下建议:
如果你的学生被多所学校录取, you will have until April 10th to decide which school he/she will attend. If you gain admission to your top choice, go ahead and notify the school of your selection. Try not to jump at an acceptance; give careful thought to your choice among your options. 克莱顿 can advise you which school might be most appropriate for your child from among your options.
If your student is placed on a Waitlist at a school you wish for him/her to attend, you or your student should notify the school by phone and in writing as soon as possible that you wish to remain on the Waitlist and that it is your first choice. Many Waitlists have much activity around and 4月10日以后th. If you choose to remain on the Waitlist at the school of your choice, you should know that any other offers of admission expire on April 10. You can call a school to which you have gained admission and ask for a short deferment so that you can wait on the Waitlist of the school of your choice, 但他们并没有义务一定要推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜你. 不采取行动 将在三月发生.
If your student does not gain admission or has not received necessary financial aid to any of your schools, 不要惊慌. We will develop a strategy to find an appropriate school choice when the student returns from Spring Recess. There will be no opportunity to do anything until the second week in April.
遵循 the same advice for Financial Aid Waitlist notification as for admission Waitlist. Often, financial aid awards are not sent along with admissions decisions. They sometimes can follow as many as a few days after the admission decision. Check with each school’s financial aid office if you have any questions.
学校可能会有重访日. These days are important in both the decision making process as well as a chance to ask specific people questions about your child’s upcoming years. We ask that you please use the Orah to inform Rumsey of days that your student might be missing for attendance purposes.
最后……
以及整个教职员工和行政团队, 我确实计划在假期里放春假. For your information, I will be traveling from March 10th onward. 这段时间我将失去联系. 我可能会对大家的担忧做出回应, 稍后在休会期间, 不过我不会亲自去办公室. 休息期间我会一直查收邮件. When we return from Spring Recess, we can commence further planning.
We have work still to do while the Class of 2023 as a whole is headed toward a strong finish at Rumsey Hall. 与家人一起享受春假!

Mark 4月22日星期六 在你的日历上 表格SSAT考试日期 推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜这里. Where it is true that schools were largely test optional this past admissions cycle, schools have not made it clear if they will return to requiring the test as of this writing. Thus, sitting for this test is good practice and will aid me in recommending schools to consider. For this administration of the SSAT, we will not be offering Special Accommodations. 在未来, 您的孩子是否需要特殊的住宿来进行测试, 我们将提供获得批准的说明. 记住，拉姆齐会帮你的孩子报名参加考试! 如果您不希望您的孩子参加本次考试， 你需要通过电子邮件通知克莱顿·凯彻姆 不迟于2023年3月31日星期五 to avoid the $165 testing fee being charged to your child’s spending account.

重要的!! Regardless of whether or not your child is taking the April 22 SSAT, please return the 新 & 现有SSAT/SAO帐户信息表 3月31日(星期五)前寄推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜Julie (jfred@theaterroomcreations.com). This avoids creating duplicate accounts when Rumsey registers for the SSAT and/or uploads materials on SAO.
在日历上做记号! 正如 2月15日推荐全球十大博彩公司排行榜六年级家长的信, there will be a Parent Meeting for the Class of 2024 during Upper School Spring Parents’ Day, 周六, 5月6日. 我们期待着你的加入.
