I was told this is the hardest school to get into. Only siblings are even looked at never mind accepted. Unless you pay. Which I will not

I would apply there and bring the application in person, remind them that they cancelled the kindergarten and left you scrambling. |
I did. Problem is this school is not for us. We didn’t know much about it and didn’t delve into it so deep. We tried applying to a bunch of schools they accepted us so we were happy.
Unless you can change my mind that it’s improved and not as dysfunctional as I have been told over and over again. By many different types of people.

I agree with you not to send to bnos Penina, as far as I heard it’s falling apart and every year more and more ppl pull out.
Is satmar an option? From the schools on your list do you have pull or connections to any? Pick one you think you have the best chance and push and push until they take you.
Bais tova is impossible to get into unless you want to wait till the day before school starts and even that’s not guaranteed

Have no pull and satmar doesn’t allow driving either.
In what way can I push ? I can call daily would that help?

Which school do you know people who send? What about your Rav, in which school does he know people?

Keep on calling to remind them that ur waiting for an interview. It’s still to early to panic. The heimishe schools take they’re time. Bais hachinuch makes sense they’re full because they start at nursery. They have 2 full classes per grade.

This is untrue. They accept torahdig families. They definitely accept a handful of new families each year.

Im assuming mixed as in not a specific type, very yeshivish.
Similar to meoros, nachlas, and neemas .
These are the schools I would apply to if my daughter would be in primary next yr, my older daughter was in bnos penina..

Yes they absolutely do they might just give a harder time then for kindergarten which is why it’s important to keep pushing and calling and getting ppl to call for you.

Shiras ruchama has a mix of litvish and heimish but not yeshivish. It’s a very nice warm school and ppl are very happy there. I know ppl that pulled out of bnos penina and sent there. It’s not chassidish though. Def look into it

I am in bais tovah. it’s a great school and extremely difficult to get into agreed. however I don’t think it’s for you if you are looking for chassidish place. it’s very not chassidish. I don’t even think they will take you if you are chassidish. it’s more heimish/baalbatish/yeshivish leaning than chassidish . I don’t think my girls have any shtreimlach in their classes.
