[quote=Anonymous]OP, we had the exact same situation -- little over a mile to Watkins, just under half a mile to L-T. I actually emailed someone at DCPS, attaching screenshots of the Google Maps distances, and asked why there wasn't a preference. To their credit, I got a response quickly. But the response was (and I'm BARELY paraphrasing here) "I see those screenshots, but the computer says there's no proximity and we can't question the computer." So, yeah, I think it's because they treat Peabody and Watkins as if they're exactly the same school. Because you're close to Peabody, the computer thinks you're closer to Watkins than to L-T. And apparently the computer knows all. [/quote]
