we have been through middle school apps before. typically, many come on the day of notification or the day after. We are alos waiting to here from B, so that is my 72 hour bench mark. Not sure about Chapin since they didn't use on-line system last time we looked. [ Reply | More

yes...they are losing their lease with the church (it owns the High School space and the gym) so they have to move....the high school will have to move sooner and then the whole school will move. No one knows where yet....rumors are East Side by river or UWS by Columbia.... [ Reply | More

Yes, the school has a 99 year lease with the church and the church wants the space back. Probably to sell to a developer. The property is worth a fortune and the church aint stupid. The fact is the school had many years to plan a move. I suppose they mistakenly thought the church would just renew the lease. [ Reply | More
