[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Takoma also didn’t make any offers for 1st, 2nd or 5th grade and only opened 4-7 lottery seats for each of those grades so it isn’t just prek.[/quote] It blew through the entire waitlist in third grade, though--that was a surprise to us. My kid had a very bad lottery number (last spot on each waitlist) and we still were offered a place. It just goes to show that this isn't a predictable process.[/quote] That’s likely because many families left after 2nd, typical of poorly performing schools when the achievement gap gets real[/quote] Or because they want to secure a middle school pathway. I know more Takoma families that move to DCI feeders in middle and upper elementary because it’s walkable and better than the feeders, despite being perfectly happy with Takoma itself.[/quote]
