midwestener, when a spot is given away, children vying for that spot will seek to get into another school. If someone goes home mid-term, it is not likely that a spot will be filled. Firstly most girls will already have been settled somewhere and secondly, bringing a girl in mdterm would be disadvantageous to her. She would have missed half the work and would not be on the same level as the other girls. There is no way she would ever be able to catch up.
