Post here if you didn't get in anywhere!

We had some very reasonable choices on our list for PS3, and got in no where. We have a backup, but what a joke!

We didn't get in anywhere last year, and when it was all said and done we got into 5 schools. Don't despair.

OP here, thanks! I just wonder if there will be as much waitlist movement with the new system. But perhaps you are correct!

Here is a question folks: If you get in off a waitlist at your #11 choice and accept it, are you taken off the wait lists for just #12 or for all the schools above #11 as well?

We got in nowhere either! PK3. We also have a good backup, but I was still thinking we'd get in at least somewhere!

We got in nowhere last year for PK3 but made it in this year for PK4.

Once the lists leave central office, it's all up to ten individual schools y manage. You'll likely stay not the lists at 6-8 even if you accept a spot at #5...

OP here, I know! I am seriously surprised. No waitlist number below 100 either btw.

PK3. Got in nowhere. Have a back up plan but still very disappointed.

There will be movement, as it is unlikely that everyone put a lot of thought into the way in which they ordered their preferences. Also there are quite a few "hot" schools outside of the common lottery. This is bound to create some movement.

Nothing for PK-3! Our best # is #42 at Lee. Think we have a shot?

Kindergarten

60's for Mundo Verde
40's for Haynes

Didn't apply anywhere else because we're in a good charter. Thought I'd try again for immersion.

Yes, maybe even this week. (My PK3er got in at Bridges, but has a sibling preference at Yu Ying for that school's new PK3 class. That lottery is Thursday; assuming he gets in, I'll call Bridges the next day to give up our spot.)
