1. Mundo Verde P St
2. Mundo Verde Brookland
3. DC Bilingual
4. Stokes Brookland - Spanish
5. Cleveland - Spanish - English Dominant (OOB)
6. Shining Stars (would only accept Spanish track)
7. Bethune 16th St
8. Bethune Brookland
9. Stokes East End - Spanish
10. Langley (IB)

Not Swami, but Cleveland Spanish fills up with inbound English dominant kids. No point in trying.

Is there some reason you put Bunker above your IB? Try Burroughs it's closer and better.

Swami reminds you there's no shame in playing, but reminds you that there's better chances in a 7-11 powerball ticket than an out of bounds O-A admission. Swami recommends entering both of yours in the MV new campus lotteries, if you are looking for Spanish. Your 1st will pull your 3rd into one of the campuses.

North campus won’t have 3rd grade

Perhaps Swami mean the 1st grader in North would pull 3rd grader in the South campus.

Or...maybe this is a fake Swami! Because real swami would never make such a mistake.

I only placed Bunker above my IB because it's literally down the street from my baby's daycare. I'll look into Burroughs.

If you don't get into Ludlow-Taylor, that means your number is below average and you will also not get into TR or Peabody.

Why would Swami, who lives in DC, be knowledgeable about NoVA schools?
