[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you sound like your family would fit in well at one of the DCI feeders (we are at one, and there are a number of families with very international backgrounds), so I second the advice to rent and play the lottery to see if you can get in somewhere. If you do that, then you will have much more freedom to choose a house wherever you want. An additional strategy could be to buy a house in bounds for a "rising" school and use it as a backup until you get into an immersion charter. The downside of this strategy is that your family will be in flux for longer. However, if you live near the Hill, you can get your kids involved in the wide range of kid activities available there (Sports on the Hill etc), and start integrating into the local community. [/quote] Agree with this advice, but remember that LAMB doesn't accept kids past PK4, and it's difficult to get in any of the DCI feeders, particularly those close to the Hill like Mundo Verde or the South Dakota LAMB campus. [/quote] DCI has no scores and no track record. And MV has no scores and no track record. I mention this because to read posts like yours you'd think you were talking about proven schools. But we aren't. [/quote]
