[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Just wanted to note that this thread has successfully convinced me to stick with Red until we can get into Purple (or we move out of DC altogether, which is also on the table). I really appreciate the feedback, which has helped focus my attention on what we actually want and value and away from the waitlist number on Blue ticking down rapidly.

It is honestly a relief to have this clarity because it has helped me accept that we are likely staying at Red another year, and I needed to accept that so that I can figure out how to make that as good a situation as possible for DC. Focusing on the after-school situation, talking to some parents about the teaching cohort for the upcoming year and what we can expect in terms of curriculum, field trips, etc. This is what I needed to do -- make staying at Red real so that I can gameplan for it.

We'll lottery again next year and hopefully get into Purple, and if not that will give us about 6 months to move. That's manageable and it's a plan.

Thanks all! The lottery system in DC can really turn your head because there are many, many options but most of them aren't that great. I needed to get more practical and y'all have helped me do that. Happy Sunday![/quote]
