For K:
1 Ross Elementary School Waitlisted - #24
2 Garrison Elementary School Waitlisted - #10
3 Inspired Teaching Demonstration PCS Waitlisted - #17
4 E.L. Haynes PCS - Elementary School Waitlisted - #6
5 John Lewis Elementary School Match (enrollment pending)
6 Lee Montessori PCS - Brookland Sibling Offered Waitlisted - #1

For 1st Grade:
1 Ross Elementary School Waitlisted - #45
2 Garrison Elementary School Waitlisted - #20
3 Inspired Teaching Demonstration PCS Waitlisted - #35
4 E.L. Haynes PCS - Elementary School Waitlisted - #8
5 John Lewis Elementary School Sibling Offered Waitlisted - #1
6 Lee Montessori PCS - Brookland Match (enrollment pending)

We put Lee down without much thought and will be turning down that offer - but is it just me or is it crazy that we got an offer for 1st from them with what must be a pretty crappy lottery number? They must be really falling in popularity.

Are you the poster whose husband wanted to ebike 3 kids from Columbia Heights to ITDS? If so, I am so glad that you are far down on the waitlist there.

I am assuming it is oppressive Garrison or bust Mom. ITDS and Lee would be basically the same commute.

given our similar numbers for ross K, i guess i have a pretty crappy lottery number and shot there, alas.

well, it was worth a try.

This is my first year NOT doing the lottery in 5 years in DCPS. Just want to take a moment to wish everyone luck, and to let those of you who are disappointed in your results know: it will be okay, your kid will be okay, and it's okay to be bummed. Waitlists do move, your IB or other back up is probably better than you think, and also it's okay to be frustrated that this is the system. Hugs!

We matched at BASIS but we won’t be taking it. One step forward for you.

Most likely Same

Wow - #9 and #16 in the upper grades for Oyster Adams, matched at Basis and Mundo Verde Cook

[Anonymous]

Got out first pick Mundo Verde cooks campus for PK3.

Think we probably got a bad lottery number. I know SWS is competitive, but we are #152 on the PK3 waitlist 😳

We got into Seaton out of bounds for PK3, assume the swing space was in our favor.

I think you'll actually love John Lewis.

PP here - I am! Good memory! We’ll see. #10 at Garrison and #17 at ITDS for K means we could really end up at either. Hoping Garrison works out, would also be happy at John Lewis!
