PG County Montessori pre-k 4 lottery... what are the chances we'll get in?

Anonymous
So I know this is a somewhat futile question and everything, but what are the chances we will get into one of the pre-4 Montessori schools? How long does the waitlist get?

Depends on your number, but for preK, I think they may only take the top two or three. Space is dependent on no returning three year olds.

I was number 20 last year, and thought it was a good number, but turns out it wasn't. They only selected around 10 kids out of the almost 300 who applied.

Sigh, that's what I figured. -OP

Get a backup plan.

How many programs are there to choose from?

My child was #84 on the waitlist last year and last I checked had only moved up to #82.

OP here. We are 126 on the waitlist. 126! And that's not even at the montessori school nearest to our house. Oh well.

We are 171. I mean, damn.

I'm much lower than all of you so far. You can console yourselves with that, at least.
