[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks to both of you who responded!  Very helpful.  I didn’t know the sibling preference had been weakened which I guess is good/bad for us— helpful for kid 1, but it would be a pain if younger sibs didn’t get in when the time comes.

Appreciate the insight, as well as the positive comments about ESSES.  :)[/quote]

My understanding is that the sibling link is now that you get two "entries" into the lottery. Given that wait lists are often in the hundreds, and they take 48 kids in kindergarten and maybe 4 more in first grade, it's still pretty difficult odds. The one thing I'd flag about the odds, though, is that recent years are not going to give good data. With the 20-21 year being primarily virtual, more spots opened up than average and fewer parents put their kids in the lottery than average. Basically, it's a crapshoot but you miss 100% of the shots you don't take, so go ahead and put your child in the lottery and see if it their number comes up. [/quote]
