Would you look at my Kindergarten list? Currently Prek4 at Seaton and loving it, but worried about the higher grades and also about attrition of all his friends this year. Would be open to staying, though.

1. ITS
2. Eaton (we would move to be closer if we got in)
3. Mundo Verde - P Street (but honestly I have a lot of reservations about the school (teachers/rigor/playground) and I don't know if I would accept.

Thanks![/quote]

If you’re willing to move, why not just move now and get guaranteed access? Or do you prefer ITS and your current neighborhood?[/quote]

This may be a little convoluted, but if we got into eaton, we would move to mount pleasant. Also love our current neighborhood.

To the ITS questioner, I like the rigor/individualization/school atmosphere/parent community/ middle school option. I also have friends who are very discerning about education (educators and school admins) who send their kids to ITS and love it.[/quote]

I'm sure you already know this, but the chances of getting into Eaton OOB are essentially nil.  They've waitlisted upwards of 30 IB kids for PK4 in the past couple years.[/quote]

Well, they are undergoing a renovation next year, and enrollment of IB kids typically drops for other schools when that happens. I know the reno location is close by, but perhaps the same will hold true, who knows?[/quote]

(and I am talking about K, no prek)[/quote]

I know you're talking about K rather than PK, but presumably there are at least a couple dozen in-boundary kids who didn't get into PK4 who will still live in the neighborhood when it's time to enroll in their guaranteed K spot...[/quote]

Looked at the data, and they accepted 5 last year for k.[/quote]
