" 1) Lottery can't be much later because it takes a while for the slots to be filled as people accept and reject spots due to multiple options in and outside of immersion. 
 2) Not sure parents want to uproot their kid after the first year of school to a new building, student body and language. 
 3) YES! "

1) Sure it can if it flows into summer more. And it's simply impossible then just move up normal registration. These are not dates carved in stone and it's really wrong that the immersion lottery must be applied for BEFORE normal K registration. It needs to be the other way around & they can play with the dates to make it happen. Without that, I fail to see how they can adequately notify people of the options out there.

2) AND? The immersion programs seem strongly over-subscribed. If people find out they like their local rather than avoiding it based on rumors, this would be a bad thing why??? For those totally devoted to immersion's benefits I would think that although they would prefer a start in K they would be willing to make the trade off for the huge benefit they get of the public schools giving them a bilingual child. It's not as if the lottery is struggling to get enough participants.
