[quote=Anonymous]There isn't anything "fabulous" that you are overlooking. If your focus is bilingual and close to your residence, your best bet is to look at schools that meet those requirements and then lottery for them by listing them high on myschooldc. As PP is said LAMB is probably off the table for you if your son is entering K because they only accept 3 and 4 year olds.

I would also look at private schools as well in case your son doesn't get in anywhere you like. There are a few catholic schools in the city like Sacred Heart that run around $7k. If you need financial aid though you might have missed the deadlines because I think some of the privates require the application for aid to be submitted in December... though perhaps that is only for returning students.

Also FYI, when your daughter becomes school age you begin this process again. However you have a better chance at getting in a charter at PK3 because more slots are open at that time. If she gets into somewhere good, you can then use sibling preference and lottery your son to hopefully get him at the same school. Good luck![/quote]
