Which list are you looking at?  The PK4 list has only admitted 3 - 2 siblings and 1 sibling of one admitted. Two new-admit siblings are at the top of the list followed by #2 of the original waitlist. It is by no means in the teens. [/quote]

Agree. 20 is a long shot this year.[/quote]

See  11:50 above.

[i]"I thought this would be the toughest grade to enter. Even if some families don't return, I figured it would be tough being that there aren't openings compared to K and PS. That being said, we have neighbor that was [u]in teens and was offered a spot and declined[/u] due to moving out of state. So the list has definitely moved. Good luck."[/i]

and 19:10

[i]"I know of 2 children in my child's PS class who'll be giving up spots for next year--one to go to a school much closer to home and one for a language immersion opportunity. [u]Both sets of parents made the decision after turning in theirvre-enrollment paperwork[/u]."[/i]

Examples of how you won't really know until the doors open in September.  [b]OP's chances are very good.[/b][/quote]

No.  They're not "very good".  What are you smoking?

I don't want to give the OP a false sense of hope.  The original wait list for the PK4 hasn't moved into the teens.  I don't know who she's quoting, but the PK4 list hasn't admitted anyone past #2 other than a child whose sibling was also accepted this year.  There are two additional new-admit siblings still waiting for a spot. Check the website.  http://www.inspiredteachingschool.org/school/appl/waitlist/
Her neighbor is probably talking about the K waitlist (which would be for a child who is in PK4 this year) which had 22 openings and recently offered spots to #13 and #14 (listed as 35 and 36).  And two children giving up spots is very different than 20 children.  A waitlist # in the 20s for PK4 is likely to not come through.  However, I will eat my words if she gets in.  Crazier things have happened in this city.  Case in point: Marion Barry.[/quote]
