I'd go to the school district. I've never heard of the school being too full. If they can't place your child there, they should be able to tell you where you can go.

Good Morning R.,

Go to your neighborhood school ask them to give you a listing of schools within your area that you may go to to register your son in kindergarten. Ask them about school choice. Sometimes if schools are filled they will provide you with information to a nearby school that may have openings. I hope this helps you.

have you tried any private schools? i know it can be expensive, but if you can get him in just for kindergarten, then transfer him to a public school for first grade.

My daughter attends The Meadowbrook School, a dynamic private school in the Jenkintown/Abington area. Many school districts in the greater Philadelphia area bus children there. I love the school, they provide an outstanding foundation for children in a nurturing environment.

I'm sure they would be willing to meet with you even at this late date. I learned about the school this time last year and we found a way to make it work. Call Kelly Mostellar, Director of Admissions, if you want to give it a shot: ###-###-####.

Instead of going to the school - - go to the school district, they have to place him in the school for your neighborhood.

Hope this helps!
