I find it has more to do with timing when you leave. I live over by Memorial City Mall and it takes about 23 minutes to get to St Anne (Shepard and Westheimer) but I try and leave the house by 715 to give myself some delay time buffer. Getting out of there after school isn't hard either. But if you are picking up after work a 5pm it is a cluster.
those of us that live in the area love the 'turning into St Anne and blocking Westheimer' parents!

I kid, but not the easiest place to get in and out of it appears. Love hearing their church bells, though.

And we love all of you going down Shepherd that suddenly decide you want to turn down a side street and block the entire flow of traffic.

But your right the mornings are crazy down that area between all the schools, Dunkin, Target, plus those leaving from morning mass at 730. Also doesn't help that it seems like the city always has some work going on at the Shepherd/ Westheimer corner blocking a lane.

What i have discovered and do NOT reccomend is joining the Houston Private School Forum on facebook and doom scrolling.

It definately gives the impression that if you didnt get your child a spot at the right Pre K3 (at birth of course) then all hope is lost for kinder.

We may also need to examine your dietary habits while the child was in the womb. Certain studies have found....

Application season is open!

We are still one year away from applying for kinder but currently doing tours this fall for the 4 schools we have on our short list.

Best laugh goes to the school asking what hobbies my child has so they can customize the tour. She is 3 and made mud last night in our driveway. Very proud of herself. Im sure i can spin that somehow.

So glad we got that all over with last year...for the time being anyway... Yeah the applications can be pretty ridiculous.

One last update to my previous responses on this thread: Cypress Christian School has now moved into their new campus in Bridgeland. You can find photos and other info here: https://www.cypresschristian.org/
