[quote=Anonymous]OP, don't worry about PARCC scores - the test is poorly designed and mainly just measures demographics/parents' income. Note: every state that adopted the PARCC a decade back, two dozen, has scrapped it by now. Only DC clings to it to this crappy test. Very few Upper Middle Class parents will go with a DC public school that isn't majority high SES (socio-economic status) past 1st grade. For PreK, you're just looking for a spot that works with your commute. For K and 1st, you're looking for more. From 2nd-5th, you probably want a majority, or even overwhelmingly (read Brent, SWS, Maury, possibly LT) high SES school. Call me racist, but white percentages count for a lot in a majority white neighborhood like Capitol Hill. Look at them on the DCPS school profiles pages and try to lottery accordingly in the coming years.[/quote]
