When is Stokes'?

LAMB is 3-22 in the morning

This has turned into a PK-4 thread, but whether PK-4 or K, I guess we'll know a lot more by the end of the week. For most of the most anxiety-producing lotteries we should know. (Is Stokes the only one that's after 3/22 of the super-competitive schools? Is LAMB 3/22 or later?)

We applied online for PreK and got in off the waitlist while the previous school year was still in season.

That's not the only reason it will likely be tighter this year. In general the focus on bilingual ed has increased even more, and the announcement of DCI being approved is probably the biggest factor.

And this obviously also affects the other DCI schools, but they are all aleady outrageously desired, so I think they were already not going to get many "no thank yous" before DCI was ever announced. But DCI is a game-changer.

Thank you 12:24, anxious for Friday!

for folks wondering how far down the preK-4 waitlist YY went last year, we got in a week before school started at 25 or so, and our friends got in the first week of school in the low-30s.

Well, if they DO move forward with what's in the charter amendment, that would be 60 PS3 spots the year after next. I know a bunch would go to siblings, but that's still a pretty high number!

Not what I heard. They need to fill the space they will be building on that will be empty.

Oh, I can see why you thought it by looking at that---that's just in case they want to do it they can. but they've decided not to.
