[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter insisted that she apply for the Argyle/Loiderman/Parkland MS lottery even though we live out of bounds. I thought her chances were zilch, so I agreed, and now she somehow got a spot at Loiederman (we'd never ever won any lotteries that I can remember). That was her first choice between the three.

The main reason for my (obvious) lack of enthusiasm is that there are no buses and we live about a 20 min drive away. We are renting, however, and looking to find something more permanent, so moving is not out of the question, if the school is a really good fit.

DD is good at all subjects, but I'd say writing is her strong suit (she's currently in a CES program). She is taking dance and music lessons outside MCPS and although she's enjoying them, I wouldn't say that she's an outstanding performer in either. 
 
We are zoned for Sligo currently and I expect most of her friends will be going there.

I expect she's also in the lottery pool for Takoma Park/Eastern, but I don't think those lotteries have taken place yet. Certainly if she gets into one of those programs, I'd pick them over Loiederman (her own preference is Eastern), but I am not sure how the timing will work (the deadline for Loiederman is Feb 4th). If we have to make a decision on Loiederman before the Eastern/Takoma results are out, can we say yes to Loiederman and then change our mind to take a spot at say Eastern?

Any advice is appreciated, especially from parents currently at Loiederman who had to make similar choices. [b]If we move to the area, what high school(s) would she be assigned to?[/b]
