My son was offered a spot @ college gardens last Friday. He is #12 on the waitlist.

I called yesterday inquiring about the College gardens wait list. They are currently accepting the #11 child on the kindergarten wait list. In the past two years, its gone to #27 and #17. It was explained to me that after the school year starts, if there are a couple kids that withdraw, the wait list goes down pretty far because kids have to be enrolled in mcps to stay on the waitlist. If parents enroll in a private school because their child was not in the immersion program at the start of the year, their spot is automatically forfeited.

You can call the Division of Consortia Choice and Application Program Services at 301-592-2040 and find out if your wait list position has changed.

Does anyone know specifically the wait list movement of Sligo Creek and College Gardens?

Just finished K at RCF and we had a wonderful experience. Really feel lucky that we got a spot. The only thing were worried about is the temporary move to a farther building while they build the new school this year and next, but I think they've handled it well so far.

OP, when you say you're on the wait list, how far up? There isn't much movement at RCF at all, although I think there is some typically at Rolling Terrace.

The Spanish ones - we're on the waitlist at all three. So Rock Creek Forest, Rolling Terrace, Burnt Mills.

I know there are some older threads out there, but the ones I'm finding for the programs we have a shot at (the Spanish programs) are all a few years old. I would love to hear about people's specific experiences with the Spanish programs, and I'm sure there are others out there who want to hear about the French and Chinese programs. I missed the open house at the program we have the best shot at - is it OK to call the school and ask for a tour?


What school would you like to know about?
