[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is the lottery determined?? I also did not get into my inbounds school even with sibling preference. Which makes me wonder- how on earth is this process determined exactly? Is it a true lottery system where people are picked randomly after the tiers are set in place? If you have applied and didn't get in previously, does that increase your chances this year? And then I also heard a rumor that there are seats being held for possible special needs students and if they don't fill them up it will go to the wait listed candidates. Is this true? [/quote]

That's crazy!  Can I ask what school?[/quote]

Not crazy, the 1-2 seats / grade are for kids identified through this program:
http://www.earlystagesdc.org  who require services the school can provide. I think they try to match with a school near where the child lives.

Under the IDEA DCPS must educate any child with an identity tidied disability starting at age 3. So those kids are handled outside the lottery. The seats are kept open because as soon as you turn 3 and have a disability, you have a right to attend preschool starting that day. [/quote]
