[quote=Anonymous]I would go into the process with the expectation that the lottery will not work out how you want, especially in the early years. This will have helped me feel less disappointed and would have pushed me to have better alternative plans. The charter system leaves a lot to be desired. If I had the choice, I’d move to be inbounds for my favorite DCPS so that by the time you get to K, you have a spot guaranteed. If you want to go for a charter, please attend board meetings so that you can see what the admin is telling the board bc it will not be the same as what they will tell you at an open house. Realize it’s very hard to run a school well and even harder when you don’t have the supports a school district provides. Lottery has never worked out for us and we went to private almost immediately after a failed charter experience for pk3. [/quote]
