[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Original poster: Thanks for the comments so far. I got the impression about Sela being the weakest based on it teetering between being a tier one and tier two charter school when the other two are solid ones, and also because BT and Haynes seem so much harder to get into. I definitely think that convenience is important, but we would pick the one that gives us the better chance of being happy all the way through elementary school over greater connivance for prek 3 & 4. [/quote] Rookie mistake, OP; popularity does not necessarily equal quality. Sela is easier to get into because parents who value language immersion typically want Spanish, French or Mandarin. Also, Sela's location is not very convenient for some families. I'm not a Sela booster, but that school is doing something special when you look at their demographics and test scores. I would happily send my Pre-K kids there if I could make the commute work.[/quote]
