Plus maybe not all parents care if their kids can read to learn, you know? There are other things in life.

STFU and stop ruining the thread. This is to HELP parents anxious to figure things out. You aren't adding anything to the discussion. Your point is taken. Now move on.

Hot is in the eye of the beholder.

We will give up our HOT seat at Murch preK if DS gets into YuYing. Which we will likely get into.

We will also give up a seat for SWS PK4 if we get into Yu Ying.

Why all the "we will have one if..." posts? Why not wait until you know for sure? Why give false hope?

You have no vision, and are totally out of touch re: what is occurring at these schools in the lower grades with eyes towards improving the higher grades. Your kids are probably very nice but I'm not sad we won't have the joy of you as a fellow parent at any of these 3 schools.

I'm curious about this too.

I am not the Murch giver upper, I'm the SWS one. It's likely that we will get a spot at YY since we have an 8:01 stamp. Perhaps Murch is the same?

She stood in line and has a time stamp practically guaranteeing entry - since YY admits waitlist based on time of application submission.

Is there an actual line for YY and Stokes? I thought they only took online apps.

Actually there's no chance her kids are nice. Unfortunately kids learn by example.
