[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not trying to be snarky,OP.  You have about a .00004% of getting into any of them so really, it worth very little of your time worrying whether the teachers are warm and nurturing at this point.  It's just not a rational decision to put this much energy into thinking about schools that your child will likely never attend.

OP, if we had followed pessimistic advice like this, our child would never have been admitted to LAMB last year (months after the lottery, off the waitlist). Apply where you would like your child to go - there's always a chance. [/quote]

No one is telling OP not to apply, where are you getting that from?  The PP you're replying to is basically saying go ahead and apply, but your odds of getting in are so slim, don't waste a lot of time labor ing over the differences in "levels of nurturing" until you know what your actual choices are.  Then come back and specifically ask because it's a real choice you have.

And given the odds, that is darn good advice.[/quote]
Actually, if you get into more than one hot charter and post here asking about it, you'll get a lot of responses saying that no one gets into more than one school, and calling you a liar and a troll. [/quote]
