[quote=Anonymous]Hey! So off beat years can be a good year to switch in sometimes because people leave due to moving, not the right fit, get into their preferred school, etc. The applicant pool tends to not be as dense though. So this isn't a total loss and can definitely land in your favor. The other thing is I would look into how good is your local public elementary school because most are pretty solid in this area. 3rd and 4th grade is a year where a number of schools actually open up and are major application years, so I would take a look at those schools, and sure apply to some places for the years in between, but aim to make the leap around 4th grade (even if schools don't officially open up spots in 3rd/4th grade, more spots open because people are moving to the schools that do open up). Giving yourself multiple years, can give you a clearer head on picking the right fit for your child.[/quote]
