[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, I am all for neighborhood schools too but why have a second round lottery if IB can bump you at any time. There's no need to apply OOB in the lottery now. [/quote] People move into the city after the lotteries. They have a right to go to the IB school at K, so why would the school want to fill up a PK spot with an OOB kid and then have to take the IB kid at K, thereby oversubscribing the school. [/quote] You're assuming that the sections of PreK at every school equals the sections of K. That is not the case in many schools. In my child's school K accommodates twice as any child as PreK. This means that all IB students on this years waitlist will be accommodated next year with the school still needing to go to the waitlist for a few spots. So this is a false argument for some schools. [/quote]
