[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LAMB is a great school. Don’t lottery if you’re going to leave. That just screws other kids. [/quote] Seriously. That spot usually doesn’t get back-filled by another kid your kid’s age who really wanted LAMB because they don’t accept hardly any kids after PK3.[/quote] This is LAMB's fault, not the posters. None of us know at preK3 what we want long term for our children and the lottery system is built around that fact.[/quote] LAMB backfills any spots through Kinder and stops taking new kids at 1st grade. So if someone wants to try LAMB for PK3/PK4 and then moves to the IB for Kinder, that spot is fully usable for someone else. LAMB (and the other charters) can't test for Spanish proficiency. This policy means that it can control for kids coming in at later grades without any Spanish knowledge.[/quote] Oh noes! DCPS takes kids without any English knowledge... [/quote]
