[quote=Anonymous]10:50 again.  Just another thing.  I am not sure what you asked the MD and VA people when you called them.  If you asked "can I enroll my child in [say] Sligo without an address?"  The aswer was likely "no, you need an adress inbounds for Sligo".  If you asked "can I enroll my chiild in the French immesion in Sligo".  The asnwer was likely "no, you need an adress somewhere in MoCo [not necessarily inbounds for Sligo, as they accept kids from other school districts] and you need to win the lottery.

That is, don't confuse being inbounds for a particular school and winning the lottery for a particular french immersion.

For example, Stokes is chartes, so there is no "inbounds" -- they accept kids from all Wards in DC.  But there is a lottery.

I reiterate what I said:  you cannot secure, right now, a spot for your kid in a public French immersion.  And even if you were here right now living 100 meters away from, say, Sligo or Stokes, you would need be be lucky (very lucky) , so nothing is guaranteed[/quote]
