[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PK3 - got into Creative Minds. #3 on our list although I was hoping for an immersion school. Bethune was #4 and it’s marked as “Not waitlisted”. It’s more of a drive but Spanish immersion. Curious if Bethune 16th St (moving to Takoma) might be a better fit? I couldn’t decide on application day where to place these two but understood CMI is harder to get into than Bethune. [/quote]

Can I ask why CMI is a top choice? They have been notoriously bad and getting worse. Lots of kids have dropped since the beginning of the school year and it’s because academics just aren’t a priority. There isn’t any accountability and the leadership just let go a huge number of staff members for next year. [/quote]

1. Proximity - walking distance, only a block away 2. Great outdoor space with lots of play time (very important priority for us) 3. Language exposure - while not immersion, we wanted some language exposure to Spanish and Mandarin is a bonus. I had also heard things improved a lot the past year and a lot of the problems didn’t matter to younger grades (we will likely go to our IB, Bruce Monroe for K). We’d likely have different priorities for Kindergarten and up. [/quote]
