[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][img][quote=Anonymous]You will need an address for the lottery and have to show proof of residency by 5/1. Also the Hill schools can be a bit tricky for prek4 since most have prek3, there are few slots that open for prek4. [/quote] OP here - I called and spoke with My School DC last week, and they actually said that we would not need a DC address to enter the lottery. They actually recommended we enter and then sort things out depending upon our results. I was surprised because we had to provide proof of residency for the lottery for pre k in Hoboken.[/quote] You should post in the DCPS forum to ask about schools/neighborhoods— you’ve already gotten incorrect info here about the lottery (and people weirdly pushing you to the far out suburbs, which you clearly do not want). It’s true that pre-k 4 on the Hill can be tricky but there are also charter schools if you cannot immediately get into your neighborhood public school. That happened to us and it was actually a blessing in disguise— my kid started at a much smaller preschool before going to kindergarten, and we loved it. But I encourage you to go to the DCPS forum to ask about the lottery/probabilities for your kids. There are some real knowledgeable data nerds over there. [/quote]
