Does each elementary school have multiple applicants but only one or two acceptances?

Thx.

Yes. From top feeders that is the case. The standards are much higher than from a decent suburban public from which no one applies. All those schools are competitive minus Kent. Barring being a recruit or legacy, you go where you get in.
