[quote=Anonymous][quote=kadeelynn]We are moving to the area this summer and WOA- I have no idea what direction to take.  Any help would be much appreciated!  Here is our situation:
PK4 and 3rd grader next fall
Both have been in public Montessori previously and had amazing experiences.
We might be able to swing rent in Ward 3 so that may put us in bounds for some decent schools but I would love to keep the kids in Montessori or Montessori like schools.

We are awaiting an offer for my husband's job so after that we could nail down a rental somewhere in Ward 3 or Ward 4....

And I don't know what to do this summer either?

Hi PP-(not the swami)

If you decide to move, call the MySchoolDC lottery office right away and they can tell you how to apply for schools in the post-lottery period (starts April 1).

Getting into a public or public charter Montessori preschool program will be hard because they are quite popular, and you are applying after the initial lottery.

As for Ward 3 traditional schools, most do not offer PreK 3. All PreK3 and PreK 4 seats are allocated by lottery, whether you are inbounds for the school or not.

Good luck with the job search and move decision.
