[quote=Anonymous]Oh FFS. I'm not a LAMB supporter, but you're making a mountain out of a molehill. Up until just last year, they had the same problem as Brent - no viable middle school alternative, so parents bolted early and often to get into Deal feeders, Latin, etc. Now that they have a feeder to DCI, I think you'll see a higher retention rate. What you might also see (if they are forced to accept at the higher grades) is the "5th Grade Bulge" experienced at places like Bancroft and Shepherd, in which parents suddenly develop a passionate interest in these schools just to get their kids into Deal then Wilson. I predict that if the DCPCSB makes LAMB admit 5th graders, you'll see this happen as a guaranteed feed to DCI.[/quote]
