Been working on this list for like 15 months, no joke. Feeling pretty solid now. Good luck everyone!

No CMI?

What is your K plans?

What is your plan if you strike out for 3, 4 and K?

Also curious. Do people not put "safety" schools on there? Will you just keep your kid in daycare or with a nanny if/when you don't get in?

Yes, noted in my OP that we are happy for her to be in the child care she is in till K.

if you do not get in for PK3 or Pk4 are you comfortable with your IB school for K-5?

I'm looking at Christian Family Montessori as an excellent and affordable elementary school nearby if I don't get into a wish list school. I'd consider my IB (burroughs) also though.

You can look here for neighborhood schools https://public.tableau.com/profile/ceyde#!/vizhome/Yr2R2Waitlists_6-18-15/Dashboard2

The charter school board website has Round 1 data for charter schools but I'm not aware of anything after that. So it isn't very helpful.

Correct. DCPCSB didn't release any follow-on data. As someone else mentioned it was probably anomalous in light of 2R-Young starting anew and MV having significant unplanned expansion. But still would be better to at least have the data.

Didn't YY also open a K classroom? This had a trickle down effect on tons of other waitlists. I know our school lost a couple families to YY, 2R, and MV, which opened up slots that wouldn't have normally been there.

We are also applying to some private preschools as a back up, but we want her somewhere next year. Can live with LT but we feel like we can always get in there next year and this is our chance to try for something else. Can also tolerate a little bit of a commute for the right school. Wouldn't mind immersion, but no interest in Chinese.

1.) SWS (only because it's next to our house. Haven't toured it yet)
2.) MV
3.) CM (seems nice but commute might not be worth it)
3.) Two Rivers
4.) Two Rivers -Young
5.) IT (know someone happy there)
6.) Lee Montessori
7.) Stokes Spanish
8.) Stokes French
9.) LT


I feel like I am kind of guessing at the right order and there may be some schools I'm missing. Without a spectacular lottery number, I think the outcome will be LT anyway

SWS was our top choice and it's a CRAZY drive from us. We didn't get in two years running, and are totally happy elsewhere, but fingers crossed for you.
