| I’m just so happy this system keeps getting better and better each year. Y’all new families have no idea the lack of transparency and ability to gauge 8+ years ago. This is a perfect system in an imperfect circumstance. |

| Interestijg how Seaton's WL is shorter this year than last, yet Langley's is longer. |

Creative Minds seems to be tanking (rightfully so IMO).
2016-17 PK3 433 2017-18 PK3 394 2018-19 PK3 406 2019-20 PK3 212 PK4 also went from 278 last year to 177 this year K went from 255 to 134 Wow! |

Seriously. Harmony seems to be flailing as well. I thought they had agreed to offer pk? |

| Cap Hill Cluster schools (Peabody, Watkins, SH) offered a total of 3 seats (Watkins 1st) across 9 by right grade levels. That's a small number for Watkins |

Interesting info on PK3 at Shepherd, only 2 IB on the PK3 waitlist, and an additional 6 with sibling before the no preference/OOB folks.
Having an IB waitlist is relatively new for Shepherd in the last 2 years. It seems a lot of the talk here was that people totally discounted it because they thought they had no chance. I'd bet a handful of OOB/no preference make it through by fall. |

| A shorter waitlist does not necessarily mean the school is tanking; it could mean that the overall quality of the choices has been increasing. |

Seaton is mostly in-bounds for PK these days. So fewer people probably apply. |

| Amazed at the waitlisting of siblings at former safety schools! |

Ouch. I do notice a lessened interest in CMI in our area. It is no longer passing the "would I drive far for this" test. |

Interesting, the WL # for WOTP DCPS schools fell off this year, as a whole. Anecdotal guess, charters options are getting better and becoming more accessible. It's no longer worth schlepping your kids across town to get to these schools. Dare I say, progress has been made. |

Disagree. You would see a similar decrease in other, similar schools. There is no sharp decrease in ITS, Lee, Two Rivers, Cap City etc. People are seeing behind the façade of CMI. I mean they barely got a 3 star rating (they were less than one point away from a 2 star rating). |
