What is your inbounds? |
| Matched nowhere. Shut out everywhere. Waitlosted in the 2 and 300's everywhere. |
That sucks. What grade? What schools? |

Our little snowflake did not get a lucky bounce for the common lottery; matched IB. WL (PK3) are as follows.
Van Ness - 106 Capital Hill Mont - 226 2 Rivers Young - 108 2 Rivers 4th - 224 Tyler (Spanish) - 75 JO Wilson - 51 Apple Tree LP - 55 Payne - 37 Miner - 13 LAMB - low 30s |
If LAMB opens the new class, you may get in with that number. Good luck. |
If I were that parent, I'd write a quick letter to the charter board supporting their expansion. If they get it, there may be a good chance the 30s gets in. |
Tubman. Recent feedback on Bridges is making it seem less like a good fit for us and it's a bit far, whereas Tubman is practically in our backyard. Lee looks like our only other possibility for getting off the waitlists, and I liked the school a lot even before the new building. Not quite as convenient as Tubman for us, but the program seems fantastic. |

For pk4:
121 in lamb waitlist Got into dual language program at Marie Reed (IB) 46 on waitlist at Oyster, our top choice |
Wow, I didn't think the waitlist at Van Ness would be that high. |
No chance at Oyster with that number. Don't give up though. Go to MR for PK4, and try again for Oyster for K--we love it! I know a family that tried for 3 years, and finally got in on the third try. |
We are lottery twins - similar WL numbers, same schools, same concerns about Bridges. Hopefully will see you at Lee - good luck! |
I would definitely go to Tubman over Bridges...even if they were both next door to each other. The families there are pretty happy. You'll likely get into Lee with that number -- it went into the 60s/70s last year. |
Us, too! |
I don't know. We're also IB for Tubman and chose Bridges instead and will stay there even after the move. Fit is definitely a huge factor, but I wouldn't say Tubman is obviously preferable. In any case, it does sound like you might have a shot at Lee. Good luck. |
| Matched at Eaton, in bounds with sibling. Did not list anything else, since if we did not go there we would just continue daycare for another year. |
