[quote=Anonymous]To start a new thread (that may need to get bumped up in a few weeks) - after all of the back and forth the pass the past few weeks about interviews, school options, staying in DC vs. moving, etc - I am curious about the 'what next'.

As has been said in a few of these threads and conversations, the number of middle and high school students in DC public/charter schools has increased, and more middle schools have been providing more rigorous options (ie algebra, geometry, ELA where kids actually read novels and dig a bit deeper, etc.). So the pool of kids is larger. Schools like McKinley and Banneker are getting more attention, and to a lesser extent the IB track at Eastern, and other application programs. As much as it sucks to not get the interview to the first (or maybe second) choice school, the lack of spots and difficulty/non interest in moving will mean that families will need to find a plan B.

For those of us in lower middle school or upper elementary grades and looking ahead at this process, it would be interesting to if folks replied with where they end up enrolling their child.[/quote]
