[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's how the FAQ defines proximity preference.

Proximity preference

Students who live greater than a half mile walking distance from their zoned DCPS elementary school will receive a proximity preference in the out-of-boundary lottery to a DCPS zoned elementary school that is a half mile or less walking distance from their home.

You need to call if you think it isn't calculating your situation correctly.

This is pretty clear, and it's a change from past policy.  Proximity used to involve a literal square drawn around the school on a map (3000 ft. per side I believe) and you had to live within than square to get proximity.  The 1/2 mile rule makes more sense.

In this example it must be a very small number.  By K+ there are not that many OOB spaces opened at Brent, and there are none for ECE.[/quote]

Depends on the year. The rising K's are a small class so there could be much more WL movement than last year (or next year).[/quote]
