Thank you everyone for your great advice. Will be listing various schools first with Amidon and the two AppleTree schools last.

How does the waitlist move? If each student is matched with a school, how is there movement on the waitlist? I can't imagine a lot of people moving or saying no to a matched school. Maybe I'm wrong.

Thanks again![/quote]

The waitlists move quite a lot. https://public.tableau.com/app/profile/aaron2446/viz/MSDCSeatsandWaitlistOfferData_draft/MSDCPublicDisplay

People do sometimes decide to stick with daycare, because it can be a lot more convenient than public school with all its breaks and summers and stuff. Considering that plus paying for aftercare plus having a sibling at daycare so sibling discount, DCPS isn't that great a deal.

People also just have changes in their lives, like moving away.

After the lottery, schools finalize their decisions about how many kids to have. For example if a school had only two Kindergarten classes, but then realizes it's going to need three classrooms to handle all the in-boundary kids that it cannot turn away, there might be a need for some wait-list kids to fill up that third room.[/quote]
