[quote=Anonymous]Super helpful, thanks. Figured as much from the preliminary searches and knew about the middle/HS zoning, but these are good details. For sure leaning toward Mt Pleasant and Bancroft - the Spanish language immersion is actually a huge draw for us as he's entering kindergarten next year and we're a semi-bilingual household already. Thanks again.

[quote=Anonymous]Bancroft feeds to the best by-right middle school and high school in DC. Tubman feeds to a middle and high school that vast majority of people on this forum would not/will not send their children to.

Some cons of Bancroft:
- Somewhat overcrowded
- Difficult to impossible to lottery into for preschool unless you already have a sibling enrolled at the school
- Aftercare spots are somewhat competitive
- Spanish language immersion, so if your child is older (2-5 grade) it likely won't be a good fit

Some additional cons of Tubman:
- At a swing space while the school is being renovated next year
- Losing funding due to lower enrollment while in swing space[/quote][/quote]
