[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I would take the spot.  Make sure you are into bilingual education and Montessori. And of course the commute.   But I would never pay for private school (especially for more than one kid) over LAMB.  LAMB feels like a private school, with the added diversity bonus.  And my husband and I feel like we one the powerball every single day.  The $100k parent fundraising for such a small school (without an auction and for the third year in a row) should give you an idea of how beloved it is by those who attend.   [/quote]This! I will play devil's advocate for a minute and interject that the school is not perfect, not one is. We've had some concerns; however, you will appreciate an open administration, willing to meet with you and hash out any concerns in a positive and productive way. The principal and vice make themselves available, are open to honest discourse and will facilitate change in a way that shows they care. With respect to the teachers themselves, kuddos to them. They value and respect each child and are eager to meet each child wherever he or she is. My DC is somewhat a "special case" a very rambunctious Pre-K 4. He's very hyper and that has presented challenges at home. However, the teaching staff has been able to engage him in a way utilizes that energy positively. I've been not only impressed, but feel very blessed and relieved. You are leaving your child at a school that provides love, nurturing and support, all within the framework of Montessori and bilingual. As I've said before, keep your Sidwells and your Georgetown Preps. LAMB every time for us.[/quote]
