[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=NathanBacaABC7]I'm a reporter at ABC7 News. I'd like to talk to parents nervous about what the waitlist numbers mean for their HS child. What options are you looking at if you don't get in? Please email me at ndbaca@sbgtv.com. Thanks![/quote]

Will you also include the reasoning behind this crazy lottery system? If equity is the goal, I don’t think it can be achieved by a random lottery system. I haven’t been in this area long, but what in the world would possess people to drive themselves crazy like this year after year? We told our realtor we needed a really good system. She targeted two counties, and we made our choice. Yes, we have to commute into the city, but I would prefer that over this maddening “system” that only seems to work for a few people. What gives? Is the Tuition Assistance Grant driving this? I’m really trying to understand.

Good luck to everyone.[/quote]

No offense, but maybe do some research.  Newcomer to DC doesn't understand the systems and wants the rest of us to explain it to her.  Because it's our job to educate her instead of doing her own work.   :roll: [/quote]

This newcomer had a question, and I thanked people for responding. Find someone else to troll.[/quote]
