[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Matched for pk3 at Kingsbury and I can’t believe it. I thought it was such a long shot I did not attend the open house. So I guess I just believe the DCUM hype and enroll since visiting might be out of the question?[/quote]

I am at LAMB and love it (oldest kid in 2nd, youngest in pk3). If you start a new thread I will answer questions. [/quote]

Also happy to weigh in on specifics on a separate threat - we love it.

I think it will be really interesting to see how the list moves this year.  Of course the WL is shorter than past years (in the past it didn't "use" a spot), but my guess is that for the same reason the WL will see a LOT less movement.  In the past it was common to see movement into the 80s and 90s.  But that was across both campuses (as opposed to now when each campus has its own list) and that was when people had separate MSDC lists to consider.  I know at least two families at LAMB that had years where they did really well on both the LAMB lottery and the MSDC lottery.  Obviously (because I know them as LAMB families) they choose LAMB, but there were also other families that did well on both lotteries in the past that didn't choose LAMB.  So for people with WL numbers in the 50s and 60s, I don't think your likelihood is good.  But maybe with the move, I'll be wrong.

Personally, I'm much more interested in whether LAMB will back-fill after K.  They've always said they don't back-fill after K, but several people are posting here with WL numbers for grades above K.  Maybe it will depend on re-enrollment numbers.  It will be interesting.[/quote]

PP with PreK3 number in the low 50’s here. I suspect you are right about WL movement this year! I also wondered whether Kingsbury construction might be delayed due to covid; if so, that could affect movement (although I’m not sure of the exact effect).[/quote]
