[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You ought to list more than three schools.  You'll only get TR if your lottery number is outstanding.

Why not Inspired Teaching?

Definitely look at Langley, it's in the sweet spot where you are very likely to get in but it's a good ECE program.  Tons of neighborhood support.[/quote]

Are Langley scores better than Walker-Jones? Because OP is not comfortable due to test scores and Langley scores are very bad.[/quote]

I'm not sure, I'd have to check and control for self-contained classrooms, but WJ goes through 8th so it wouldn't be an exact comparison anyway.

If it makes you feel better, PP and OP, my 1st grader is having a grand time at Langley and is well above grade level.  Test scores aren't everything, especially when your child is so young.  I understand OP wants a long-term plan, but that isn't necessarily going to happen, so I suggest Langley as a good option for a bad lottery number.  Many Langley families are IB for WJ.[/quote]

Everyone wants a “long term” plan. But so much can and will change over time. The truth is that there are simply not many great MS options in DC. No use worrying about it now. Your family will figure out the right option (private, move) or get lucky in MS lottery (and have it be a good fit!) when the time comes…[/quote]
