[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you for all the feedback. Especially 14:19.

I do realize that I think most people responding don't quite understand. I spent a little time this afternoon during a break looking at some rentals in the better school districts and it's WAY more expensive. Way way way more. We pay $1375/month for rent for a 1 bedroom + den (very tiny second bedroom).  There are literally zero places to rent in better areas that are less than $2100 for that in better school districts.  Not an option.  The finances don't work out.

I was also a little confused by the whole afternoon preschool thing. My son is in full day care and has been since he was 5 months old. He will continue to be if he doesn't go to this school, so I don't think the PM thing makes much of a difference to me. Am I missing something?

But I think it was helpful to hear what people have to say.  We're going to see if we can find a 3 day a week nanny/sitter share . I work close enough to where I can do pick up, but drop off would be hard. We'll see what it costs to have someone take him.

I am hearing that it's not worth turning our lives upside down and I am grateful for that information. If it looks like the logistics will cause serious stress, then we won't do it.  I think our son will do best with happy parents who aren't frazzled.  [/quote]
My DS was in full day care too but the afternoon schedule generally includes a nap. It was a real problem for us. What is the afternoon schedule at your child's current daycare - that may help you sort that out.[/quote]
