[quote=Anonymous]Well, I did it two years ago. It is stressful, but the way I saw it, the schools are crowded, and they need to get the families that live in district situated first, and then they can let the admin transfers know. I honestly don't think they're trying to obfuscate the process, its just complicated and there are a lot of factors at play. They have to first wait until the registration deadline, see if the projections were accurate, and then they can begin processing the transfers and those have a system too - the ACPS policy is to keep sibling together, etc. I found out earlier than some because we were switching from MVCS because of the calendar, and MVCS (and Tucker) transfers were done first. We didn't get into our first choice, but are really happy with our second as it turned out. I too was told it shouldn't be a problem to get into my first choice, but as it turned out they had a lot more kindergartners than anticipated, and there just wasn't room.[/quote]
