[quote=Anonymous]You don't have to lottery for your in-bounds school. Do they know where they'll be living yet? Wilson is the in-bound high school with the highest test scores. Eastern offers an IB program and a health sciences academy that helps students become EMTs--Capitol Hill and other nearby neighborhoods go there. Roosevelt probably has the most Spanish speakers, if that is important to her. Columbia Heights Education Campus has a lot too but an application is required. Other application high schools include School Without Walls, Banneker, McKinley Tech (science-focused), Ellington (arts), Phelps (mostly vo-tech). There are also charter schools. If you know the neighborhood where they're living that might help with advice. If the kid needs special ed, remediation, or advanced classes or has a special interest that might also help--not all DC high schools have marching band or sports or school plays or other things the kid might want.[/quote]
