[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honest question: we matched at Sela (we put it lower on our list but we speak the language at home, so that would actually be a bonus) and got #15 WL at SWWFS. Prior years suggests little movement off the list before August or even October, but that this result is fairly likely to get an admissions offer. SWWFS is slightly easier from a commute perspective, though not necessarily enough to make a difference, especially with the van service from our neighborhood to Sela. 
A few questions for the hive mind:

--This is our first lottery. How secure is a "match" if we don't enroll until much later?

--if the WL offers go as late as October...what do people tend to do in August and September?

--most importantly - feeder status aside for a moment - is there a clear academic choice at the PK and elementary level? are there any issues with either that would give the other an advantage? Looking at the rankings and assessments (such as they are), I'm not sure ...[/quote]

I love Sela, our child loves Sela, and it has been fantastic in generally every way. The only reason we are (considering) leaving is to secure a middle school feeder pattern. I would regret leaving though[/quote]

Def worry about hte feeder later. They are working on it (no promises, obviously!) Sela is great! My kid is so happy there 
OP here...this is great to hear - thanks! we're definitely leaning in this direction (with the same feeder concern - middle school feels VERY far away right now, so: just hoping there's movement on that by then!)[/quote][/quote]

Commute is a huge factor. I would put it above most others, honestly.  Which makes SWW the obvious choice.  People enroll in the next best school and switch if they are able.[/quote]
