Hello-

My husband and I just moved back to the DC. We live in the Petworth/Manor Park/Takoma  area (we are not zoned for Bernard). DC seemed to be the midpoint between our two jobs. Plus we really like the city. We are ready to plant roots in the DC Metro. My husband works in old town Alexandria, VA. I work in Potomac, MD. (we both have a 30min commute) from our current location. We both work from 8am-4:30pm.

We also have a three year old who will need to go to Pre-K 3 next year. We are open to both DCPS and DC Charter schools as long as they are top performing.  :!: :!: :!: :!:

I would love if the school could have a few of these:
•Before and After Care (I will likely drop off at 7:30am) (My husband wil pick up no later tha 6pm)
•Immersion (preferable Spanish) 
•BONUS: Feeds into a good middle school  :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

When do we apply to the lottery? What schools are you applying for Pre-K3?

Thanks so much for your help.

LAMB is not your best bet.  It's a great school, yes, but good luck getting in there.  Ditto Barnard and EL Haynes.  If you don't already have a sibling these schools your chances of getting off the waitlist are nil unless you get a really high number.

We live in northern Brightwood on the border of Takoma DC and tried for Barnard.  It was our first choice.  We got a decent spot at Cap City but didn't get called up.  Takoma EC was just renovated and I have heard some good reviews from parents.  We ended up at a downtown charter (not gonna say which cause I've already revealed too much).

Good luck.  It's just really effing hard no matter how you look at it.[/quote]
