[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would definitely wait for Oyster. We moved inbounds during K year and have been there (now in middle school). Kids have joined the class in every grade we've been- 1-5th, so it does happen. This year in particular there seems to be a lot of flux.

But are they kids who moved to the neighborhood or who got in OOB through the lottery?

OP, it sounds like a lot of hassle for kids who hate change and love their current schools. If you are fluent in two other languages, why not start working with your kids to learn one of them and really go all-in (camps, aftercare, au pair, long summer trip where the language is spoken with kids enrolled in camp, books and TV in that language, etc.)?

On the other hand if you try LAMB and don't like it they can always go back to their IB DCPS, even partway through the year. So keep that in mind if you do decide to go for LAMB.[/quote]

I don’t think LAMB would give the first grader a seat, even with sibling preference. Plus if they did and then changed their minds, that’s two spots that LAMB would never backfill and two families that would never get an offer there. Doubting OP would send one kid and not the other, so probably a non-issue, but I’d personally choose Stokes over LAMB if I wasn’t pretty sure I’d keep the seats through elementary.[/quote]
