Yes, maybe even this week. (My PK3er got in at Bridges, but has a sibling preference at Yu Ying for that school's new PK3 class. That lottery is Thursday; assuming he gets in, I'll call Bridges the next day to give up our spot.)

Kindergarten

60's for Mundo Verde
40's for Haynes

Didn't apply anywhere else because we're in a good charter. Thought I'd try again for immersion.

Nothing for PK-3! Our best # is #42 at Lee. Think we have a shot?

There will be movement, as it is unlikely that everyone put a lot of thought into the way in which they ordered their preferences. Also there are quite a few "hot" schools outside of the common lottery. This is bound to create some movement.

PK3. Got in nowhere. Have a back up plan but still very disappointed.

OP here, I know! I am seriously surprised. No waitlist number below 100 either btw.

Once the lists leave central office, it's all up to ten individual schools y manage. You'll likely stay not the lists at 6-8 even if you accept a spot at #5...

We got in nowhere last year for PK3 but made it in this year for PK4.

OP here, thanks! I just wonder if there will be as much waitlist movement with the new system. But perhaps you are correct!

Here is a question folks: If you get in off a waitlist at your #11 choice and accept it, are you taken off the wait lists for just #12 or for all the schools above #11 as well?

We had some very reasonable choices on our list for PS3, and got in no where. We have a backup, but what a joke!
