| ITs my first choice, so I'm having a hard time waiting? Has anyone called the school? |

FROM LAMB'S WEBSITE:
LAMB held its lottery Wednesday, April 6 with 535 applicants. The front desk does not have the waitinglist numbers available. You will receive a postcard in the mail by Monday, April 11. Please do not call or visit the school requesting this information. We do not have the capacity to address 535 inquiries in person. We are sorry for any inconvenience. |

When I called the school yesterday morning, before the lottery, they told me that all kids who would be offered a spot would get a call within the next day. So if they call you today, you're in. If they don't, well...you'll have to wait until you get the postcard to see where on the WL you're DC falls. Good luck.
BTW - they haven't called about my DC either, so...

| As I understand it, if they don't officially have their new location yet - which I don't think they officially do - then everyone is on the waitlist since there isn't any space for non-siblings at their current location. So no one would be admitted yet; therefore no calls to admitted students. Please correct me if my interpretation is incorrect - lots of technicalities in this! |

I agree with pp. No one has been admitted, but I'd like to know where we are on the wait list. No word...
Also, I understand the lottery pooled the 3 and 4 year olds. Can anyone speak to how they intend to keep a balance while pulling kids off the wait list? |

| No postcard today. Glad USPS won't be part of the shut down if there is one so I can get my postcard tomorrow! |
