[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's surprising to me that more that a third DCPS elementariness don't have spots for all in-bounds PS3 & PS4 students who want to attend. That's higher than I expected![/quote] It's free childcare. I'm not surprised that is appealing to many residents, when faced with the alternative.[/quote] I don't think that is the take-away, because almost all schools in DC offer PK3. The small minority of those that do not, are all WOTP. If everyone wanted the free daycare, then all schools in DC would be over-subscribed. But most are not. I think this is a story about the gentrification of certain neighborhoods, the schools in which are now over-subscribed in a way that only WOTP schools were formerly. I think this is pretty clear based on the non-WOTP schools that have had WL for all of the past three years (in the link above). Bancroft, Brent, Powell, Ross, etc etc etc. [/quote]
