How to get accepted to a Montessori Community School

Hello ！ ！ ！
My son will be starting preschool next year in the 3 year old class.
The application process will start in September, and our first choice is
Montessori Community School in Makiki.

I recently attended a meeting hosted by the school where I was able to tour the school and ask questions, and I heard from many other parents who had questions about the school
They told me that this year, the admission rate for preschool for 3 year olds was 15 times higher than that for 3 year olds.
I knew that this is a top Montessori school because of its difficulty and small class size, but
I was intimidated by the 15x odds.
The school also told us that there were a lot more applications this year than in previous years due to the opening of Corona.
It seems that until 8-10 years ago, it was 2-3 times as many.

So we would like to know if any of you have actually been accepted to （ Montessori Community recently ！ especially those who will be entering this August ） who have broken the 15x threshold
and what you have done for your children or what parents should do. ！
We would also like to hear from parents of children who are currently attending the school and what kind of school it is.

By the way, we are considering St. Clements and Unity School as our second choice.
Thank you in advance ！

Nice to meet you ！ I'm in the same situation as you ！
I was also at the tour ／ question session that the school set up the other day ！
15 times. I was surprised too. ！
I was informed of the reality of the entrance exam （ ）
Even so, I was impressed by the school tour, the enthusiasm of the people on the school side, and the school policy towards children, and I wanted to enroll my child more I've been thinking for a month how I can really get in ！ ！ ！

We applied at both 2 and 3 years old, but no luck. ！
We are going to apply for Kinder this time ！
I thought a lot about what is the point to pass the exam, but I didn't know ！
I don't know... I think it's a good match. I guess.
I hope we can pass 15 times together ！.

We also wanted to get our two sons into MCS, so we took it at ages 2 and 3.
We put them both on the wait list, but they didn't come.
This year, my younger son took Kinder again and failed miserably.
My two children failed MCS miserably, and I sent them to Central Union for pre and from Kinder to public elementary. We did not even make it through the exam, but every time we visited and asked questions, MCS was very nice to the school staff and teachers.
I was disappointed with both of my children, but there is no doubt
that it is a wonderful school that is very committed to its school, educational policies, and academics. I see that it was 15 times this year. It's a huge turnout, but it's a popular school, so it's understandable.

My child did not get into MCS, but the kids seemed to have fun at Central Union.
Parents are more worried about the entrance exam than their children.

I don't know if you need my comment, since I didn't get in at all, but I have been in contact with the school many times, and
I was so impressed with the school that I still think it is a great school where my child will receive a really good education. If your child is 3 years old now, you have several chances to take the entrance exam, so by all means, please do your best.
We are cheering for you.
