Where did you start? We moved from #3 to #4 for 4th


We just got offered 5th for Shepherd, too. Too bad we're moving to Maryland! I think we started at #5?

For what grade? We actually moved down (first).


Yeah, we moved from 5 to 8 for 1st grade.


The shepherd k classes last year were huge. Not sure they’ll be making many offers for 1st this year.

I've played the lottery for 8 years and this is the first year that I've actually "won" (meaning my kid doesn't have to attend his inbound school).

waiting for a school that gave 15 seats for pk4
waitlist has been stuck for a month


Depends on the school. By mid-September to early October (just before count day) they can really move a ton because a lot of folks don't want to move once school starts so they go through multiple offers before someone takes a slot.
