[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't the reason that it is 90 percent hill families that it is residual from when there was a boundary preference? Before it became a citywide school with the move. I tried the lottery back in 2008 I think and I would have happily driven my child across town from upper NW had we gotten in but no one from OOB actually got in. Even as a citywide school the sibling preference has to help maintain that dominance. That said, I hope it will dissipate over time so don't think location of the student body should drive this decision. Maybe it makes sense, however, to have it with proximity to SWS since families have to get their children there. That may be the same answer but for a different reason.[/quote] Yes, up until last year, families who were in bound for the Cluster (Watkins and Peabody) had preference for SWS. That means that families within the cluster school boundary with kids currently in grades K and above had preference. [/quote]
