[quote=Anonymous]We are renting at the moment and our sensitive, artistic, on-grade-level 3rd grade daughter goes to a good public elementary with a not great in-bounds middle school. We moved to DC somewhat recently from a city where we could more easily afford private school, and she loved her old school - I think just because the classes (and the entire school) were small and the people were friendly. Honestly the public elementary school is pretty good too (also smallish and good class sizes) and she seems content. Trying to think about setting down roots and curious what you all would do in my shoes. Recognizing that middle school is always kind of a disaster and that lotteries are a long shot, what's the best approach? My thoughts are generally that everyone says move in-bounds for Deal but given the size I'm just not convinced it's a great fit for her. Planning on applying for the lottery for both Latin campuses but assume we probably won't get in. So where else would you consider moving in-bounds for or trying to lottery for? Thanks![/quote]
