The middle school search nightmare. We have started to receive responses from the 12 schools we applied to for the next school year. Unfortunately, we got a letter from the Center School today saying that they couldn't offer a placement for Duke next fall. His immediate reaction was disappointment's, because he really liked the school when we visited in October. Anger immediately followed and he wrote this lovely message.

**Update**
The next morning he was over it and that same afternoon we received acceptance letters from two other top middle schools. We've already made a choice and both agree that this was fate. Besides, it's the Center School's loss.
