LOL! They don’t care about SD, too busy with Kingsbury.

Well OP, take consolation. It’s not just new families. There is a recent LAMB thread where the majority of current parents who took to DCUM to express their views, were very unhappy because distance learning in the spring was so bad. One family thought all they cared about was getting Kingsbury going.

No, the recent thread had some posters in that thread that were unhappy with how distance learning went, but you can no way extrapolate that a majority of current parents are unhappy. I know I'm not the only one that thinks the school is doing the best the can all things considered. I'm sorry to hear that the PP was frustrated with the enrollment process, there is certainly a lot in flux for the school this summer, but yes, the school should be responsive to new parents.

+1 to hardly a majority were unhappy. We also were not unhappy and appreciate how the school adjusted their learning as the Spring went on and became more rigorous as time went on.

+2. We were also not unhappy. Yes, everything is a disaster. Yes, LAMB has never excelled at reaching out to new parents. Yes, the pandemic has not made that better. But we have been there for many years (meaning we have kids not in primary) and were not unhappy with DL. It took a couple tries to find a good way to make it work, but by the end of April it was good - I would say we got 6 good weeks of learning new content. In terms of reach out, I would strongly suggest using the email address.

OP here. I have emailed and haven’t heard back. Have to accept by tonight.

Accept by tonight according to Lamb or My School? Can you call my school?

MSDC deadline is Friday. School’s is today at 5pm.

If you replied to the offer email already you should be set. Is that what you did?

Sounds like a total disaster OP. No wonder some people on here said forget it.

So basically you’re being high maintenance. OP, the school is trying to figure out a schedule for the fall, class lists, a new attendance policy, bring parents and teachers up to speed, etc. If you have questions, post them here! Or accept the spot and then figure it out. Honestly, you seem intentionally helpless.

I disagree with that. Hoping by now you got answers but are you emailing admissions@lamb? If so I imagine you will get a reply and if you need to speak to someone first, you will get extra time. I think some of admin is on break this week. I recall when we got an offer from WL we did get to speak to someone and it’s a normal request.

Nope. You're allowed to ask LAMB questions before blindly enrolling.

All the other schools are doing the same and being responsive to new parents. Sounds like LAMB is incapable of doing both or just don’t care about new families as another poster stated.

Actually they’re not. DCPS schools are having those policies dictated/handled by the central office. And you have absolutely no idea how responsive other schools are.

I’m talking about charters and know ours is and a few others from families. Also reference the post about the parent who named other charters she/he knew which BTW are in addition to the charters we know.

People on here can make all the excuses they want but it’s unbelievable that OP has a deadline and can’t get any response via phone or email. None.

Thank you PPs. That post was such an unnecessarily mean post. I’m high maintenance and helpless because I have an IEP related question that I want to ask before accepting?!! And if I “just accept” and the answer isn’t adequate then I lose my current seat?

I pray that you don’t represent the parent body at your school. Whether I accept the spot or not, I hope to never cross your path. I know this pandemic has got us all on edge these days, but you need to take a chill pill.

To the other PPs, thanks again. I did receive a response yesterday via email.

[Anonymous]

OP I’m glad you got your response. No the prior PP calling you high maintenance isn’t likely from the school or if so isn’t representative.

But all these folks ready to pounce because of a small delay and decide that LAMB doesn’t care at all about new parents are like...what? Take a chill pill indeed.

I know, right? The breathless updates about the phone error message. And then when PP hears from them, she doesn't bother to update the group.

That's the part that makes you high maintenance. Buena suerte!
