[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about students at the DCPS dual-language schools? Can they lottery in at 9th grade? What about those with home-language or test-verifiable proficiency in one of the DCI target language programs? Can they get in? I'm thinking of this because DC is at a DCPS bilingual program and we speak Spanish at home; I have no doubt DC would take to a school like this with ease, and Walter Reed is close to home. Is there anything wrong with trying to go that route?[/quote] The lottery will be open to all. It will be up to the parents to get additional help in a target language if they lottery for DCI and there child has no past experience. My DC is currently at Powell Dual Language School and we are hoping to lottery for DCI for 6th grade. Charters aren't allowed to test-in applicants. I don't see why a parent would lottery is heir child doesn't have any past language experience. They will be doing their child a disservice. [/quote]
