how about this scenario – we don’t move from where we are now (92122), and we get lucky and get CHOICED in LJ schools. What, if anything, happens, when we move to Clairemont? If you get lucky to choice in – does that have to be re-done every time you move? Or is the choice “for life” so to speak – if desired?
I am just trying to play safe. IF I could get choiced in LJ or UC school I have no problem buying in Clairemont. But I may not be ok with the schools there and I don’t have money for private ones, so… I could delay buying the house until we see where the kid ends up choiced in. The choices are known in spring – so, if we don’t get the choice we wanted, we move then in summer (buy or rent) into a good public school neighborhood.
