[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi, neighbor!  We did PK3 at Powell and loved it.  We switched to an immersion charter (not DCB) for PK4 solely because of the feeder pattern into DCI, and I have always regretted it a bit.  If you do not need a path to middle school, Powell is a great option.  Even if you do need a path to middle school, I still think Powell might be the better choice.  Without a guaranteed slot at DCI due to feeder expansions, you are trading off a sure good thing (excellent neighborhood school) for 5+ years of guaranteed inconvenience for a modestly better chance at DCI.[/quote]

NP. If you don't mind me asking, are you at MV? We're looking at a choice between MV and Powell likely and though MV is popular and hyped, I'm not getting the impression that it's actually any better than Powell. [/quote]

NP, but I will say I think "hype" is the right word for MV.  I know lots of people who try to get into MV, and almost all of them then try to get out.[/quote]
