[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stoddert actually cut a pre-K4 per the article - so that would explain the more limited capacity - while families with kids staying in the neighborhood has grown dramatically.[/quote]

Yes, the number of neighborhood children looking to attend Stoddert has grown in recent years but may have peaked and is now starting to level off (see below). Plus, a few blocks were cut from Stoddert's northern border (comprised of apartment buildings) during the boundary process and rerouted to Eaton and that should take effect this fall, if I'm not mistaken (for families who are not already enrolled at Stoddert--they are grandfathered). And once Hyde-Addison has been renovated (a year or two from now), the Burleith neighborhood is slated to move from Stoddert to Hyde-Addison. So I suspect we'll see decreasing PreK numbers at Stoddert in the next three years.

SY 2015-16: There were 60 IB families who lotteried for a PreK spot this year.
SY 2014-15: There were 70 IB families who lotteried for a PreK spot.
SY 2013-14: There were 79 IB families who lotteried for a PreK spot.
SY 2012-13: There were 55 IB families who lotteried for a PreK spot.
SY 2011-12: There were 59 IB families who lotteried for a PreK spot.
SY 2010-11: There were 40 IB families who lotteried for a PreK spot.
