As background, I tried registering my daughter for 2nd grade for next year at Stone Creek. She currently is at a private school in NB. I didn't think we'd be renting so long- but now the private school doesn't go to 2nd grade and I am going to have to put her in the public school. (Nothing wrong with that, but I just didn't want to be yanking her out of different schools since we will not be buying a home that services Stone Creek).
I went the first day, and I was turned away and told to make an appointment as the line was getting too long.
I went a second time, but was told my info was not complete. I did not have the utility bills with the same address for service and billing (goes to my PO Box). I brought other bills (like the phone bill) that *would* gave been ok the second time I went, but apparently the phone bill isn?t on the approved list of utility bills. I gave her what I had and she put it in the system, but my daughter could not be put on a classroom list.
I changed this information for all my utility bills and waited for the next billing cycle that shows the proper way they want to see the utility bills.
So, on our third visit, I provide my utility bill. All seems fine and ready to go until I ask her- ?So in clear conscience, I know she is ?on a classroom list? I don?t have to worry about her not having a spot. So then she tells me that the school is going to be sending out ?Impact Letters?. Apparently, there is no guarantee that my daughter will be at Stone Creek- she may need to be sent somewhere else and then when it's 3rd grade she would have the possibility to go back to Stone Creek.
Is the school just trying to cover their bases, or is there is real possibility I have to wait to see where she is going to be put for 2nd grade? Has this happened to anyone? I am a working full time mom- so this issue not knowing for sure where she is going to be next year is very unsettling for me. I need to put her on a waiting list somewhere for before school care- but what good does that do if I don?t even know where she will be? I called the Irvine Unified School District for clarification, and they told me it?s on a school-by-school basis- I could be waiting up until September to know where my daughter will be placed.
How overcrowded are the classrooms in Irvine?
