[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Although I think the lawsuit is inappropriately brought by the plaintiff -- simply because there are people who could be better plaintiffs than this one -- anything that can shine light on how the selection process works for the all of the choice programs is helpful.

For example, my three kids all applied to the French Immersion program at Sligo Creek ES when eligible.  None of the three kids made it into the program.  None of the kids received a lottery number higher than 75 (two of them received numbers in the low to mid 100's).  We applied in person for all three on the first available day MCPS accepted applications.  Two of the three even reapplied for first grade admissions; we gave up on reapplying for the third.  Yes, I understand how non-preferential lotteries work.  Yes, I know that it is possible to go 0/3 or in our case 0/5 since two reapplied in the second year.  However, it is difficult to accept the outcome when none of the kids made it into the program.[/quote]

Just curious...  Did you only check Sligo Creek or did you apply for other programs?[/quote]
