The gift horse gets you into BASIS. You play out your HRCS middle school with some trepidation instead because you aren't loving the hours of homework.

Swami, you were right. We got into Basis and WL at Latin!

I pray you have something good for me!

Swami says the good I have is the haphazard nature of your list. You will get into Sela at lottery day, wonder why the waitlist is so short; get into SSMA by July with your 30+ waitlist number, wondering why the list moved so quickly.

You will try to join the parent organization, but man, why do they argue so much?

Swami we got into Yu Ying! Woot woot!

Dearest Swami,

Please reach into the greatest depths of your talent and tell me if DS, waitlisted at #37, has a chance of getting into Francis Stevens School Without Walls for 4th grade next year. No preferences.

13:18 Excuse me come again. You don't know my circumstances so please don't come for me unless I sent you. Thank you! What is wrong with wanting to get a good education for my child?

Someone has to get into Latin without a sibling, and you are going to be the one. You are grateful for the bus drop off near CHML and will be using it daily.

Swami you are my hero!

Swami I will forever be an apostle to your swaminess — we got into to Latin today!!

Swami is ready to get to waitlist swamiing, and wonders why only people in Takoma are reading DCUM these days.

Swami thinks you will land and stay at CMI. You will complain about all the mid-day performances.

Thank you Swami, Unfortunately we only got into Takoma. Not complaining too much because some people got into not one school.

YY parent here, you will love the school. You may not love your child's English progression (since she/he will spend so much time in Chinese, so I suggest you supplement at home). I have had two children through YY. We love it, but are totally aware of its faults. I am a strict parent: my children catch up on their English which YY doesn't require. The outdoor space at YY is fantastic - arguably the best natural space for any school in DC, period. There should be more outdoor classes, especially for the science time. Do email the school and ask to get onto the parent listserve. It will help you get information about upcoming meetings, you will be welcomed at PA meetings should you choose to attend. The Aftercare program is probably the most enriching you can find. It's also priced accordingly.

Not Swami, but if you are willing to move in October, when everyone starts bailing because of the commute, you might just get lucky.
