What did you like about it? |

| Seemed like admins are reading DCUM cause they had a room and activities for the kids in attendance, had parents introduce themselves, answered all questions quite well, good, informative power points, ended on time but allowed for people to ask more questions (good for those of us who had to leave), addressed weaknesses and opportunities for parent involvement. |

| The parents also seemed nice and there was a good mix. |

| That they are new and unproven, Montessori ususally has multiagency classes with the more experienced students as the mentors but in this case everyone will be new, etc |

| Any feel on whether there might be movement on their waitlist? Were people signing up enthusiastically or waiting for other spots to come through? Any K parents there? |

| Did not notice any K parents, I saw first, pre-k3 and pre-k4; however this doesn't mean anything. There will be movement. A number of situations I overheard: one parent has kids at another charter that the parent likes but also likes Lee, one mentioned having good numbers on the wait list for several highly regarded charters and a highly regarded DCPS, another has issues they are trying to work out that would impact whether or not could attend Lee. There are also situations where a twin got in but the other is on the waiting list. So there are a number of things--obviously I don't know all the possible situations. Life happens and the wait list will definitely move. The good thing was that everyone seemed to like Lee and be really positive about its chances of success. |
