[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow we didn't get in to any of our 12. We really wanted Bridges (our child has special needs) and I was for some reason feeling good that we would get in there. I suppose still possible since they did go through their whole wait list for PK3 last year (right?) but I guess there's no way to know if that will happen again this year.

Our wait list #s are: 
Bridges 142 :( 
EL Haynes 181
Appletree Columbia Heights 97
Tubman 109
Two Rivers 384
Inspired Teaching 244
School Within School 315
HD Cooke 36
Meridian PCS 19
Garrison 27
Bancroft 4 (in boundary preference)
Marie Reed 66[/quote]

If I were you, I would go to a Bridges open house coming up and talk to the staff about your kid and your wait list number and see if you have any chance. I know they got into the 100s last year. I had a number in the 90s and got accepted in late May, so I think there is hope. Tell them if they end up having a spot for you, you definitely will take it, that you will bring your enrollment paperwork in within 24 hours. Try to talk to the person who personally manages the waitlist (last year it was admin assistant Kristel Guzman), let her know how you could make her life easy by filing a spot. And keep calling every few weeks throughout the summer to check in with her. These waitlists don't always go strictly by the numbers and with a SN kid, you really should try to work the system there.
