1. INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS (non-parochial): If you have reliable information about the number of K spots likely to be available at any of the schools listed below, please input it. "Available" here means the total K class size, minus the likely number of siblings. If the school provided a range, please take the midpoint of that range. (Numerical answers only - i.e., "10", not "ten".) Example: School has K class size of 18. At tour, admissions staffer indicated that they will likely have 10 to 14 siblings in the class. Taking the midpoint of that range (12) and subtracting it from the total, that makes approximately 6 available spots.

2. SFUSD SCHOOLS: If you have reliable information about the number of K spots likely to be available at any of the elementary programs listed below, please share it. "Available" here means the total K class size, minus the likely number of siblings. If the school provided a range, please take the midpoint of that range. (Numerical answers only - i.e., "10", not "ten".) Example: A school's Spanish Immersion program has a K class size of 20. At tour, the person giving the tour indicated that they will likely have 10 to 14 siblings in the class. Taking the midpoint of that range (12) and subtracting it from the total, that makes approximately 8 available spots in the school's Spanish Immersion program. (Note: The list below is based on the Adams' Spreadsheet (available at the PPS-SF website); basically, I sorted the list by column G (chance of getting in in the first round without sibling) and took the top 40 schools, which coincidentally worked out to everything where the likelihood of getting in in the first round without siblings was less than 15%. Order is from least likely to more likely.)

4. GENDER SKEW: Setting aside the single-sex schools (obviously), do you have information indicating that any of the above numbers are going to be skewed significantly by gender? If yes, please list the school name along with the available K seats and the boy/girl breakdown. Example: The Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry (7 available: entering siblings are mostly girls, so available non-sibling seats will be approximately 6 for boys, 1 for girls)

6. Does knowing the number of available non-sibling seats affect your likelihood of applying to a particular school, or whether you include that school on your SFUSD list?

Absolutely: it makes a big difference if I know how many spots there are, and if it's a really small number, I'll save my application fee/SFUSD choice for something that gives me a better chance of payoff.		66.7%	4
Meh. I'll just cross my fingers and hope, regardless of the actual numbers.		33.3%	2
