SH, DCI, 2R, CM, IT are all also 6th+.  So, really the PP should have indicated that parents only applied to Latin & Basis, the only MS for which they would be eligible.  I sympathize with the dilemma, but exaggerating unnecessarily doesn't help make the point.[/quote]

Not just W Latin and Basis.  No admissions this year at St. Peter or CHDS.  I heard that a couple of kids who did get into W Latin or Basis, or have relatively low lottery numbers (but are moving backward) have tentatively committed to returning to Brent next year.  If you didn't have sibling preference the lottery results were very bleak, and there's no reason to think that this situation will change next year or beyond.  As for Jefferson, the idea that a handful of parents are going to overcome the mindset of Henderson and Central Office, no to mntikner that dimwitted do-nothing, David Grosso, is mildly amusing.  This same bunch has no issue throwing municipal largesse at Ellington and other boondoggles with absolutely no accountability.  Where are the hearings on the empty Taj Mahal high schools?  Take a look at Murch.  I would rather see Brent parents fighting for the $4 million in modernization funds stripped from our school three years ago so that younger kids have a bright, inviting space big enough for dedicated world language, art, science and music rooms.
