I don't think at the CES level, the cohort argument is that important. For example, Cold Spring draws mostly from a handful of schools that feeds into Wootton and Churchill. They are all good. Maybe Stone Mill used to send a few more in.

What they did is more subtle, they separate a few schools out to give them a home CES, I believe for the rest of the catchment area, it is a lot easier to get into Fox Chapel now that Rachel Carson and more importantly Matschunaga is no longer eligible to send kids to the regional center.

Parents: How come my kid has to have a long bus ride to a different school to get an accelerated/enriched program? Why can't my kid get this at their home school? Boo, MCPS! Boo!
MCPS: OK, let's add an accelerated/enriched program to some home schools. 
Parents: How come my kid doesn't get to have a long bus ride to a different school for accelerated/enriched classes? How come my kid has to get this at their home school? Boo, MCPS!  Boo![/quote]

OP. As of today, there is no 'accelerated/enriched program' at my child's elementary school; you don't get into a CES, you're stuck with crappy 2.0 and that's that. And seeing what's going on with new curriculum RFP, there's little hope things will improve in the future. And, for the record, I'd hate for my kid to have a long bus ride but we would have done it, just to make sure she doesn't waste two more years at school.[/quote]
