[quote=Anonymous]OP, I send my daughter to Cooke in Adams Morgan. Just up the way from Reed, not dual language so no worries about that. It's an IB school, which was what I liked. The test scores online are garbage but we got a new principal last year and she has made major academic improvements. I can't quote exact scores, and it wouldn't be apples to apples anyway, but there has been considerable improvement in both reading and math as a result of increased planning and teacher responsiveness to mid-year assessments. There tend to be a handful of upper grade spots in the lottery, and if your older child got in, that would help your younger get in when it's his/her time. We got into Reed too (for the English program) and I just found the facilities so depressing. I know they're scheduled for renovation, but that won't be complete until well after your child matriculated anyway. I have a friend whose children go to Cleveland, but for Spanish. She loves the school. I also know people with kids at Tubman, Seaton and Garrison, and they're all having good experiences overall. [/quote]
