Key Elementary School
Hearst Elementary School
Eaton Elementary School
Hardy Middle School
Oyster-Adams Bilingual School
Ross Elementary School
Hyde-Addison Elementary School
Deal Middle School
Brent Elementary School
Shepherd Elementary School

Honestly surprised that Hardy is higher than Deal. Will the same be true of Macarthur and JR in 5-10 years?[/quote]

The data can be a little misleading in a few ways. First, it treats kids who can't get in for PK as the same as kids who choose not to go for K+. This means that the popular Hill-based ESes are automatically lower all else being equal, because they have two PK grades full of eligible kids who might not get in (Brent/Maury/LT/Peabody). This probably has the biggest effect on Maury because it is so hard to get in for PK3. Second, it only talks about kids in public schools not private ones, so school zones that have lots of kids who opt for private are treated as higher utilizers than zones where kids opt for charters even if the average kid in the zone is less likely to go to their IB.[/quote]
