[quote=Anonymous]I'm an earlier poster, not the last one, but we do have kids at SSMA. For middle school we'll just rank all of the acceptable charter and public middles for the fifth grade lottery, apply and hope for the best. If we don't get in for fifth, we have a year and the means to at least pay application fees to parochial schools, as well, and we'll have to make a decision about cost and fit at places like that if it comes to it. We could also have moved by then, or there will be a new charter middle available, or one of several other things. I hope you don't think I'm being snarky either, but I think that a lot of people on this board with kids below, say, third grade place a LOT of emphasis and worry about middle-and-high school paths. Unless you've got a 3rd/4th/5th grader, I say pick a place where you actually like the younger elementary set-up and then worry about crossing that bridge closer to the actual date of arrival.
