[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Clarification:  lottery application for both kids was based on intended grade next fall for each child.  Post lottery application, current school decided one child was okay with moving up one grade next fall.  Now have offer from new school for both children but that offer is based on the old grade for one child.  Assume best to speak with principal. [/quote]

Is the kid who was "okay" with moving up one grade skipping a grade or you're just no longer redshirting/holding them back? I do not think a DCPS, in general, is likely to let a kid skip a grade on a charter's say so, particularly if you lotteried for the "wrong" grade. However, if you were intending to hold back your kid and then didn't, DCPS *might* oblige... if there are spots available in that year. You really need to call ASAP though. If by misrepresenting the grade your kid would enter, you put your kid in an entry year vs. not an entry year, expect to be met with some skepticism that you weren't doing to advantage yourself in the lottery though.[/quote]
