[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many of us are deciding whether to prioritize DCI feeder schools in our lottery choices, including taking on longer commutes and giving up neighborhood schools. Especially  without a guarantee anymore, the academics are absolutely relevant. I’m much less willing to gamble our elementary experience on a chance at a school with academics I don’t have total confidence in. If you take middle and high school out of consideration, school choices look much different.[/quote]

I don't mean to sound patronizing, but if you are trying to decide on how to rank a charter school pre-K program in your lottery list based on where this year's DCI graduates are going to college, you are in for a long a bumpy road with DCPS. By the time your child is in high school, DCI will be a very different place (for better or worse), and neighborhood or language charter feeder patterns will likely have shifted, again. Charters are a big experiment and the DC government is unpredictable. The whole thing, on some level, is a gamble.[/quote]
