[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really liked Stoddert and Mann. Didn't care for Eaton and Lamb.[/quote]

Unless you are IB, why do you go to the Open Houses for these schools?  Shooting for the tiny (1-2 number possibility of upper elementary?)  Don't waste an OOB PK4 slot on Stoddert, Mann and Eaton?[/quote]
Stoddert and Lamb were for my older kid few years ago. DC got in Stoddert  prek4 with no problem. I went to Eaton with a friend because it's her IB school. She decided to move IB to Mann. 
We live IB to Mann and I think our chances for prk4 are pretty good. If we don't get in, I can stay home one more year. I don't think 4 open houses for 2 kids is overdoing it. 3 of them are literally 5 minutes from each other. Why Lamb? Both my kids speak Spanish, but our lottery numbers where really bad.
I know more parents who are renters than I know home owners. While moving is pain, it's doable.
I met a parent who said that she was more impressed with Eaton than Oyster. Told her to check out Stoddert and Mann if Eaton impressed her so. Seems like she was choosing a school first and then a place to live.
