[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So would anyone be supportive of giving at-risk preference over IB students for Pk3 and Pk4 at DCPS, and at every grade for charters and city-wide schools? [/quote] I would. Any loss of opportunity to my kids would be small compared to the benefits to the at-risk kids and the system being more equitable overall. Free preschool for the affluent should not be a thing we spend money on.[/quote] I would too.[/quote] I would too, and I am IB for a highly desired WOTP school. But, assuming that most at risk kids live on the other side of the river, a lottery preference is meaningless. I want the city to invest in transportation so that young kids can get to the school without their parents and in a timely way and I'd want them to be able to stay at the school, not be kicked out after PK.[/quote]
