[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You do the lottery every year and leave when you have a number good enough to get access to the middle school you want.[/quote] This is what we did in third grade and although it was really hard to leave the school community, it was absolutely worth it. DC settled in so quickly and it feels good not to worry about having a bad year due to certain kids in the grade, have the middle school question resolved, or worry about friends leaving or harder social transitions later. We would have stayed at our school through fifth, but unless you’re willing to move for middle school, you have to play the lottery every year. You have to get that good draw the same year a school on your list opens up another classroom or randomly makes a bunch of offers. [/quote]
