[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Past year's experience probably isn't a great measure to go off of. They didn't take anyone from the lottery for the lower elementary montessori program for next year and they're not planning to expand the program in the next couple of years given the Henry move, so people who lottery into the primary montessori program will be less inclined to give up their spots knowing it probably means giving up montessori for elementary school. Also, Drew and Hoffman-Boston are not good comparison points because those school have several more montessori classes than Discovery.

Where did you hear that Discovery will have two classes next year? Next year's budget only provided for one Montessori teacher and one Montessori assistant at Discovery, so unless they're switching a class there from another school, I'd be surprised if there are two. [/quote]

So basically, APS held a lottery for elementary Montesorri, but only accepted applicants from APS primary preschool, who are guaranteed admission and don't need to lottery in? What is the point of holding a lottery if not a single entrant is selected?[/quote]
