I have been reading about the cap on the schools in holly springs. Is this still a problem? I have kids in 4th, 2nd and one going in to kindergarten next year. Would they have a problem getting into school?

Possibly. Holly springs El is capped. And they may have room in one or two grades but not all 3. And it depends on when you move in
Best call your school of interest and ask them directly.

I will do that, thanks. I am wondering what happens to people who don't know that and go there. Are their children denied being in school???

The students would just be assigned to attend another school that is not capped.

Seriously?

No. They are sent to the next closest school that has room for them. Your base school should be able to give you an idea what the overflow school is.

I am not from an area where schools get capped so I am unfamiliar with what happens when this is an issue. That is all, just trying to get my facts straight. Thank you for your input.

All it takes is a little research -- go to www.wcpss.net. Read it, and then come back and ask questions. We're not trying to be rude, you just need to understand that we get the same exact question a million times from people who haven't even tried to figure out the answer on their own.

Not just that but let's be real - telling kids they just can't go to school?!? Look I'm a transplant too but you'll get farther here if you think things through and put together a cogent post with all your questions AFTER you have read the thread stickied at the top of the forum. I promise

Could you imagine? Every kid in America would be clamoring to move here.

Maybe it's already happening. Would sure explain some of these relocations.
