Just got an email offer for Garrison pk4. We were #1. Probably not taking the spot but have until May 8 to accept.

Seaton parent here. My advice is to call and keep checking. Let Ms. Daisy (registrar) know that you are very interested. Goodluck!

Just called one school and they said they are just putting in the paperwork now and expect to start calling wait list students in the next few days…

this is tame and calm and easy compared to two years ago, before they put in the requirement making everyone rank.

Just today, we moved -5 spots for YY (5 spots better), and -1 for ITS. Interesting to see the numbers change today. It should give solace to those who are anxiously awaiting number changes.

Good luck!

I agree. I do wish they could minimze the feeling of "winning" and "losing".

Oh god, yes. I had to go to my doctor because I was having chest pain, seriously. It was awful. I still count that PK3 year as one of the most stressful of my life, so I have the utmost sympathy for everyone going through the lottery.

PS - We had to lottery for a couple of years, but wound up at a wonderful school, and I was not having a heart attack, so it worked out for us in the end.

Our Appletree number has not moved at all, which I suspect is because they haven't gotten the paperwork together. Last year they went into the hundreds on their waitlist.

We received an offer from AT late last week, our waitlist number was previously in the teens. We saw no movement prior to the offer.
