Wait List:
Capital City PCS--#15

DC Bilingual-- #34

Stokes French-- #22
Stokes Spanish--#30

We got into our #7 choice of our inbound school--Barnard.

Feeling hopeful that we might get into our top 2 or Shepherd.

What do folks think?

We were #1 on the WL for Cap City last year for PK3 and did not get a call! I think siblings actually moved ahead of us. I only actively followed the WL for 2-3 months though. I think Cap City is a special case though for siblings because it goes all the way through high school. I think you will get in somewhere with your WL numbers. Also I have friends who were happy with Barnard for PK...I think the issue though was many kids leaving in older grades.

Pk3 or 4?

This list is for PK3

I would not count on Cap City or CM. Last year Cap City for PreK3 did not move much at all (less than 10)

50s for Bancroft? I just added it to my post-lottery app for PK3 and we're #7, no preference.

Sounds like you are #7 of post-lottery applicants.

Guess they aren't opening 3 new classes... So disappointed.

I feel like our only real shot is Van Ness but who knows what that will be like this year. We've heard very good things about Payne for PK so we're happy to have a spot.

Welcome to Payne. We're there right now and it has been a great experience. We can't wait for PK4 next year.

We have friends at Two Rivers Young. They are very happy there.

Wow - I am surprised you got wait listed at JO.

The principal is great.

30s for ITS, Stokes, Creative Minds (seems very very unlikely, I know)

Would love any feedback. We have a decent back up that we feel good about (private Catholic).

I think you'll be in somewhere certainly before the end of summer.

50's for Peabody (OOB with sibling pref)
60's for AppleTree LP
80's for Tyler SI
30's for Tyler traditional <- seems to be our best shot at the moment
170's for Maury
280's for CHM
270's for TR 4th
320's for SWS
130's for Ludlow-Taylor
Beers matched (but not sure we'd choose this over just staying in our current daycare's preschool program, and trying again next year for PK4)

We got into Appletree LP PK3 with a number in the 100's last year, they get pretty far into their waitlist.

Whoa, Van Ness had a waitlist up to 53 for PK3? Looks like that school is becoming popular...

Or its just a filler school for Cap Hill families. Slow down.
