Shepherd has higher IB than Hearst so doesn't take that make Hearst the gateway?[/quote]
If DCPS ever gets around to updating statistics on the school,profile page, you will see this is no longer true.  ...[/quote]
This is also true for Shepherd.  Give it a few more years and unless any of these schools are removed from the Deal/Wilson feed, they will all be mostly IB.

P.S. I was told by a school admin person recently that Shepherd's IB% is now up from 35% to 43%.  I'm sure the official numbers for this year will be published at some point, but in the meantime, this is what the admin person said re: the current school year.

I'm sure Hearst is similarly much higher IB this year.[/quote]

The enrollment details for 2017-18 are posted here: https://dcps.dc.gov/page/my-school-dc-lottery-results

Hearst had 39 slots for PK4, and all 39 were filled by IB applicants.  Hearst had 0 available slots for for any other grades.

Shepherd had 38 slots for PK3 + PK4, and all 38 were filled by IB applicants.  Shepherd also had 26 more slots for grades K-5, and all of those were filled by OOB students.[/quote]
