[quote=Anonymous]Personally, my list would probably go:

Shepherd
Lafayette
Whittier
Lewis
Takoma

The first two get you into a good feeder pattern so would be worth ranking first IMO. Lafayette is huge and has an incredibly non-diverse student population (at least on paper) so gives me pause, but still probably worth it for the feeder pattern. Whittier is an incredible school; the one thing there is they're up for modernization so will be doing the trailer thing for a bit. I have a feeling that after the modernization, more neighborhood kids are going to buy in to Whittier and they won't have as many available seats, so now may be a good time to get in out-of-bounds if you're interested.

Whittier and Takoma both feed to Wells which seems like a very decent middle school option, but Coolidge continues to feel like a no-go. Things might change though as Wells gains traction! We've had friends at Lewis who loved it -- again, the long-term feeder pattern is an issue there. We had friends who lotteried out of Takoma after PK3 and had a bad experience overall, but that is a single anecdote.[/quote]
