[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rising 2nd at Key has highest class sizes in years - would be surprised if any OOB spaces will be open.  I would agree with trying Hearst... or Hyde-Addison which will be in swing space & lots of vacancies.  [/quote]

Wow - I know 3 OOB in the current 1st grade class at Key.  Interesting strategy by the Principal.[/quote]

There are 10-12 OOB in each grade at Key.  That's their 'strategy' - to date, this has been regardless of the IB enrollment (which has been growing). [It seems to be a commitment they made to DCPS central]  They did not let in any OOB above first this year.  IB has grown in every grade - and significantly more in the younger grades.  The school has traditionally had a set of kids that go private, starting more heavily in 3rd and 4th (which is part of the reason for them taking in the OOB in the early grades to bolster the classes over time).  But that is getting less and less as more and more are interested in staying and going through Hardy.  (for real, there is a cohort of families who are all-in for Hardy)[/quote]
