[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here.  Is there a page on the website, or a booklet, that gives information on the different schools and their curriculums?  I'm particularly interested in the charter montessories.  Our IB school is Eaton, which has PK4.  So you're saying we don't get automatic enrollment in Eaton when my son turns 4? [/quote]

You don't get automatic enrollment for Pk4 at Eaton. You will get automatic enrollment starting at K. You will enter the lottery for Pk4 at Eaton. Children whose families also live IB for Eaton whose older siblings attend Eaton already will have priority over you for admission. Most IB families get in, but not necessarily all of them.

The exceptions are if your in-bound DCPS is an 'early action' school (typically Title 1 schools - so not Eaton) which offer guaranteed enrollment for Pk3 or Pk4.
 
Most school information is online, not in a booklet. Use the DCPCSB website to begin your search for various charter school options and find more on each school's website. You should also go to the Ed Fest school fair event in December as well.

As for charter Montessori schools, your choices are LAMB PCS (also dual-language); Breakthrough Montessori, Shining Stars Montessori and Lee Montessori. [/quote]
