[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi, I have a son entering Kindergarten in August.  I applied for the lottery because Arlington Traditional was my first choice.  I had to apply to both ATS and Campbell because I do not want my son to go to Carlin Springs where we live.  I did not realize that the lottery was this hard.  We are spot #114 for ATS and #13 for Campbell.  Any chance that he may get into Campbell?

I really wish I could have found somewhere in the Arlington Science Focus boundary but I had to move quickly due to a divorce so now I'm really worried.  Worse come to worse are there any diverse private schools that parents recommend?

Thank you![/quote]

You probably know this, but ATS and Campbell are polar opposites in their approach.   I know you want to get away from Carlin Springs, but you do have to think which model would be the better fit for your son.   That said, you have lots of options.  We know many families who moved, any many families who switched schools in different grades. And even if you didn’t, Carlin Springs is very small with a very strong support system, and you can still work towards a switch.   I think your chances with #13 at Campbell are very good.  [/quote]
