[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We got in absolutely nowhere for kindergarten.  Compared to previous years our numbers look good, because we're under 100 for most of them, but the numbers of applicants and places are much lower for kindergarten.  I can expect very little movement.

Really depressed because we have no other option.[/quote]

will you consider moving to burbs? [/quote]

No.  Not an option.  Like I said we have no other option.[/quote]

You have pther options, they just might not be a choice that you are willing to make. You could send you child to the IB school. Move. Homeschool. Private. Don't feel defeated.[/quote]

Move, homeschool, private are NOT options.  Not everyone on this board is wealthy.  Our only real "option" is the IB school which is not really an "option" simply the default.[/quote]

Moving is always an option.[/quote]

Agree with PP, of course moving is an option. Moving is a time honored tradition for parents to get their children into school. Maybe you don't want to downsize, maybe you have some other issue with it being difficulty timing to move, but it is clearly an option. Move, rent your place out and rent in the new school district. There are always options. This has nothing to do with being wealthy, sorry.[/quote]

Seriously.  So much drama here.  Does PP have parents/in-laws she can send her kid to and see if she can get her kid into their neighborhood school? I've known families who've shipped their kids across the country for the opportunity to attend school.  My in-laws actually boarded a former neighbor's kid who was in a similar situation, and they weren't anything but good neighbors.  There are lots of ways to get things done, if you really want them done.[/quote]

I know a few people who sent their children mostly infants to grandma's while doing their residency.  Kids turned out fine.  [/quote]
