[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP my advice to you is to get some "safety schools" like Sela on your list for sure. You can daydream about the ideal school but that is not how the lottery system works. Some people get lucky. Most do not. There are schools I would love to send my kid to that I have lotteried now for three years in a row and not gotten in. The most popular schools fill up in PK3, and have siblings who get preference, and it is just darn hard to get in. The best chance is when you are applying to PK3 and even then it is not easy. If you cannot afford private and do not want to do your in-boundary school you must make sure to have schools on your list that are realistic. [/quote] PP that gave a solid list has Sela as well as Shining Stars, Burroughs, Breakthrough. Shining Stars may have more openings with their move. Same with Bridges. My guess with list above, she will get at least two offers (depending on how she lists them). [/quote]
