[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Called the office yesterday and they confirmed Sligo Creek has offered through #23 for the K waitlist [/quote]

Wow.  It sounds like nearly an entire class worth of initial invites were declined, if they got to that number that quickly?  I guess maybe a couple people had numbers removed after accepting an offer or something, but wow, 23 right out the gate for one of the (historically) most popular programs.  Does this seem totally random or maybe indicative that people are nervous to move to SCES after all the relocation discussion this past year?[/quote]

Yup, that's my guess. It's very likely that SSIMS will close and SCES will either close or relocate in 2029 (high chance of closure IMO, it would be nuts for MCPS to pay to rebuild both Sligo Creek and Highland View so one or the other of them is probably closing), when next year's kindergarteners are starting 3rd grade.  That probably gives a lot of parents pause.  [/quote]

It’s really too bad if so. Our second kid is about to finish there and they are both quite fluent n French. I don’t see how they would have become bilingual in any other way.[/quote]

I don’t think the program itself will be cut but agree it might not land in the same spot.  Wasn’t Spanish at Page a relocation from Rolling Terrace?  Changes like that are pretty big for commutes.[/quote]
