[quote=Anonymous]I'm in favor of it. And I want it in place, and then to have PCSB adopt it as well after a good discussion. I would then like to see it prioritized. I think there is room to consider whether it belongs ahead of sibling preference. It appears, at least to me, that the knowledge advantage about the lottery process, expanding class years, and other small edges that exist in an otherwise fair entry process help shut out at-risk families in favor of those who already have access to some of the HRCS and more popular EOTP DCPS elementaries. Think Latin or Mundo Verde. I think that is nice for my family (we have a kid enrolled due to being a younger sibling, almost certainly, at our DCPS) but it is better for the city overall if at-risk kids get those seats first.
