[quote=Anonymous]We applied to St Pats, NPS, GDS and Beauvoir. Got in to all except GDS where we were waitlisted. DS is at Beauvoir and we love it. I was told that St Pats and NPS were easier to get into but I don’t think that’s true- Beauvoir takes 60 kids however siblings start in pre-K. At the admitted students events I saw a lot of the same people at NPS and St Pats but fewer of those people at Beauvoir. I would think of it like a 2 year process. If our DS didn’t get in, our plan was to go to our local DCPS and then reapply for K and include Potomac and Maret. We really liked Maret in particular. We came from a no name preschool and I think it helped, they aren’t going to take everyone from NCRC. We are full pay. We attended literally every event and our goal was to come off as the normal not high maintenance people that we are. We didn’t ask annoying obvious questions at tours and events. We did have a family friend who is a former employee of one of the schools we got into write a letter on our behalf. We did write a first choice letter to Beauvoir. [/quote]
