I tried calling this morning and was told that nobody there could help me and that I'd have to call back on May 1 when the school director started. They would give me absolutely no information and would not even take our name for the waiting list.

yeah, that's what happened to me too.

I think I got the info because I had called in January in regards to programs now. They said they are making sure the ones on the waiting list have a definite spot, that's probably why they are very closed mouth to anyone wanting info now. They are going to have a 3 day program for pre-k, btw. Dana called me this afternoon to let me know.

That poor director, who is going to get 100 calls about this on her/his first day.
It sounds stupid to people who don't have kids, but the preschool song-and-dance is one of the hardest things I've dealt with yet!!

I agree that Director is going to get swamped...it would just be so nice if the person who answers the phone would sound as though she cared that you were calling to try and find a place for your child. A little sensitivity would go a long way for people who are so desperately trying to find a place for their children...and, especially from a church! Guess I expected a bit more.
and it seems unfair to put all that on the Director of the school on the first day!.
Okay. Now, my rant is over.

I totally agree. (I won't go into my opinion about where some of the rudest people in this world are....;-) ) It didn't help me that as soon as the receptionist picked up the phone, all three of mine plus a friend of theirs got ear-piercingly loud. She was really short with me, but Dana was nice after that.
This is one of those other "things" that SoWal needs.... a good pre-k program in the local area, b/c we aren't all tourists.:!:

I'll keep trying..........No info on when to call or anything. Thanks all for the help!
