[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really think that between Key, Mann, Hyde, Stoddert (and maybe Eaton?) we can expect many more children enrolling from feeders so I'm bummed so many oob spots were awarded in the initial lottery. Not because I don't want oob, but because I don't want huge classes. [/quote]

Calm down, I would be surprised if 40 spots offered accept. [b]There are very few middle school options[/b], people put schools on their just because they can.[/quote]

I don't follow your logic, PP.  If there are very few middle school options, wouldn't those OOB spots at Hardy be prized?

Every kid who match for 6th grade at Hardy either ranked Hardy first or drew a bad number in the lottery and was wait listed at every public and charter middle school ranked above Hardy.  The MySchoolDC unified lottery has reduced wait list movement dramatically.  Where are the 40 kids you think will decline their Hardy spots planning to go?

Furthermore, why won't the 17 kids on the wait list for 6th grade at Hardy be offered the spots that are declined?[/quote]
