No direct experience with this, but I agree with the prior poster. Spring tours are generally geared towards families applying to K. You should reach out the schools you’re interested in directly to see if they will have spots for first grade. Now would be way too early, I think.

Why do you have to attend spring tours again? I thought that other than K, you just directly contact the school to see if there are spots available. I also imagine they just won't know until at least the fall?

Private!

I would assume OP is talking about private…

For private or public?

We got into our fifth choice for K, and there’s a big gap between that and our top three choices. Our nursery school director was somewhat unhelpful about admissions, so we didn’t get much feedback. Is anyone else in the same boat and planning to attend spring tours or events again?
