[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’ve also struck out 8 times in a row with no chance! Everyone we know is somewhere they want to be, but we’ve never gotten a waitlist # below 50 at our top four picks.[/quote] When you say struck out, what were your criteria for what you would have taken? It seems close to impossible you couldn’t have gotten a good enough number for ITDS, MV, or H-A at some point in the last 8 years…[/quote] Tracking this. If you are only trying for the "fancy/rich" JKLMM or whatever they call themselves, maybe. But in the last three years Mundo Verde, Stokes French, Hyde Addison and probably a few more ran through their whole 3, 4, or 5 grade list. (Not each year, but individually, yes.)[/quote] If your kid is not already in a Spanish or French school, you would be stupid to put them in one in 3rd to 5th. Just setting your kid up for a huge failure, likely along with anger and resentment from your kid. For what? Trying to stay in DC? Seriously, just move to the burbs if you struck. That is what we would have done by 1st grade or so.[/quote]
