[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kudos to them for getting it up so fast! They need to merge Dorothy Height (K-5) and Dorothy I Height (PK). Even they waitlisted PK students this year...there really is a huge demand for seats.

My IB school is Amidon-Bowen. Amazing how many IB folks got waitlisted...no wonder they stopped early action! I'm interested in the fact they only offered 18 PK3 spots. Maybe they are waiting for IB families to enroll over the summer in K-5 and then they'll have seats for siblings?

Stevens offered 33 seats with the at-risk priority and only got 20 applications for it. They offered 48 seats for not-at-risk and have a waitlist of 76 kids.

Houston elementary has no waitlist for English-dominant PK3.

And while Hardy offered 20 seats for OOB students, Deal and Stuart-Hobson each offered 0.

Amidon added a kindergarten class for 2020-21. The decision was made to use a preK classroom for K so there is a smaller number of PreK seats/rooms for 2020. (This, on the heels of DCPS insisting, only a year ago, that Amidon would be going from 4 to 5 preK classes.)

Popular principal, great teachers, and strong PTA are helping make Amidon a good option for IB families. Sucks about the preK squeeze, tho. [/quote]
