[quote=Anonymous]I agree that it sucks. It has so many unintended consequences. It's not just the lottery but the "choice" system as a whole. We landed at a top choice at PK3 and yet wonder if something better is out there, worry about its appropriateness for our child over time, about the middle school option, etc. I am happy to have our child learning Spanish from age 3, which isn't common, but on the other hand the trade-offs for the system as a whole seem huge. I think all this energy could be better spent improving one school instead of switching schools frequently and pitting them against one another for students and resources. I can see how our neighborhood schools will never improve (unless they change, for instance GT or magnet programs), but I also value the unique methods of teaching and learning that are provided at the charters - for the select few, anyway.
