I have a dilema.
I have put in a transfer request for Rebekah to go to Linthicum elementary next year for child care reasons (she would ride the bus to school and home from my mom's house, her babysitter). However, we won't know until July if she can go to Linthicum.
Today I registered her for kindergarten at our home school - Overlook. We have to register her there during K registration and then transfer her to Linthicum if she gets in there. If she goes to Overlook, she would be a walker/car rider and we don't have a way to get her to and from school if I keep my current work schedule. My mom might be able to do it but she might have my sister's daughter and then she can't so I can't plan on her doing it.
While registering her, I was given info about Kindergarten open house and it's May 23. I won't know which school she is going to by then.
So I called Linthicum and their orientation is May 24. The secretary said we were welcome to come to that orientation (understanding, of course, that she may not get in).
I'm thinking we need to go to both orientations. What do you think? I don't think there will be another opportunity to see the Kindergarten rooms and the school before the first day if we miss orientation.
