LOL! We’ll figure it out.
Swami hopes you are comfortable putting your three year old on the bus for two years, because your child will get into CMHL and wonder what the heck to do now regarding renting for the two years they are in swing space. You will wonder what Maria Montessori thought about this.

Greed is good. Everyone in EOTP is going to hate that you got into Latin.
You will make a generous donation to the Bacchanalia Faculty Fund to make yourself feel better when talking about social justice in DC with your therapist

This is a joke, right?
This is the list of someone that is either (1) fairly happy where they are so would only move for something better, or (2) a backup plan to move or go private if the lottery doesn’t work out.
Ding ding ding. Currently private and very happy, but moved from MD to DC and will consider a change to public for a good school. Figured that it didn't hurt to try and if we get in, we'd only lose our deposit.
Not swami - There are 160 current k'ers at Lafayette. That means that there will be no space in 1st next year. OP, next time maybe order the list based on current enrollment? You have Lafayette so high, that you may have wasted a spot. I do hope you get in to one because I love your optimism. I wish I had it.
No, Lafayette should be high if she prefers it. If they’re “wasted” spots, she should still continue to order in true preference. Kills me how people that don’t understand the lottery give advice here.

New to DC - why are these schools a joke? Are they bad?
This is a joke, right?
No, they are all very good and most take no or few OOB students. I only saw 5 spots between all the schools last year when I just quickly looked.
Shepherd called 6 from waitlist to fill a spot, Eaton 1, Hearst 1, Hyde called 42 out of the 56 already waitlisted. Granted swing space but still worth a shot.

Shepherd is your best bet, but you may need to wait till 2nd or 3rd. Still not greta odds.
