What's happening at Yu Ying? |
The don't do the outreach to fill their equitable access seats |
You're only seeing the YY Equitable Access waitlist because it's short. The regular YY waitlist isn't appearing because it isn't short. |
Let's see... what might help people still looking. I only reviewed PK3, PK4, and K.
Amidon-Bowen for K Barnard for K Beers PK4 at Bunker Hill K at Burroughs Cleveland English-only for PK4 and K. DC Prep Friendship-- lots of schools Harmony Hope Tolson... I'm not sure that school's gonna make it. JO Wilson PK4 KIPP-- lots of schools MMBethune Rocketship Seaton for K SSMA for K Takoma for PK4 and K Thomson for PK4 and K Truesdell for PK4 and K Tubman for K. Tyler English-only |
Oops here are a few that I missed. DC Wildflower Dorothy Height Global Citizens Lee EE PK4 Sela PK4 and K Whittier K |
Friendship Chamberlain's elementary school should clearly be closed. It is a casualty of Payne's ascendance. |
Let Sela be a reminder that quality and popularity are not one in the same. |
I think Tyler may be a mistake. I'm pretty sure there isn't a non-Spanish program for PK & K anymore and somehow that means those "seats" are showing up on the short waiting list. |
This is right, at least to the extent it’s showing up on the short waitlist list for PK3 & 4. I think maybe it hasn’t been adjusted yet to reflect the fact that the school is now fully immersion. The waitlist for English-dominant PK3 was 161 when the lottery was first run, so unfortunately (for those looking) not at all a short list … |
What context are you meaning? |
Sela used to be a safety for PK3 for years. To see them not on this list for PK3 was a little surprising. |
So short waitlist is under 10. No given but enough optimism for them to make a list.
We are only a few spots north from that at PK3 Takoma. I wasn’t optimistic but if they are considering short at 9. Maybe a few more than that we have a chance. |
Have to believe diminished J.O. Wilson demand is related to the impending swing space/renovation. I do not blame ECE parents for not wanting to deal with bussing for little kids. Trajectory will pick up when new building opens fall 2026. |
Yes my kid is incoming pre-K and I didn’t consider Wilson for that reason! |
