[quote=Anonymous]Welcome! When looking at houses to rent, you probably want to weigh the quality of the school for your 6 year old, with the likelihood of your 3 year old getting a slot at the same school. There are some wonderful schools that either don't have PK3, or have IB siblings who don't get in. Is that a trade off you're willing to make? If so, I'd be looking at both public PK only schools that might not have wait lists (Military Road, some of the Appletree campuses) that might work with your commute, or charter schools with no lists. You might also want to look at private preschools if that's in your budget. If also agree that you should enroll your older kid the moment you have a house. Then your younger kid will take either the top spot on the waiting list, or the spot below the last IB sibling spot. How many kids are on the waiting list doesn't matter, what matters is how many siblings are on the list. If they end up at the top of the waiting list, the odds of getting in are good. [/quote]
