Kindergarten? Already?

Can you believe it is time for us to figure out which school Kyley will go to for Kindergarten?  Darryn and I went to look at one school today (the school that serves our address) and show our proof of residency to register her for school next fall!  Now, the school system here is just crazy... there are about 12 schools that serve our area and we can pick and rank 4 of them according to preference.  We can then also choose from 2 additional Magnet or "Traditional" schools in the district.  (That is a total of 6.)  Then there is a system that the school district uses to assign you to a school. 

Its been an overwhelming process for me and I don't feel like we know enough to make a decision, but I have really been looking into this since I visited Louisville in November.  I have read tons online trying to see how the various schools rank in the state and nation.  I have read about the various programs each school has to offer.  I have talked to "the parent's assistance center" on the phone.  There is no way we can visit all the schools, especially with me just starting a new job and Darryn being in school, so we are trying to do the best we can possibly do.

We are going to tour a school on Friday and then turn in our preferred schools on the application.  Please pray for a good decision!
