[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do people feel if teachers are offered IP spots for their children - even if it means transferring their child into the school - as a way to incentivize teachers to return? This would ultimately take an IP spot away from an existing student but it would also help open up more spots. TBD if the teacher's child would be allowed to bypass lottery/in-bound and keep the spot going forward. *Children of DCPS teachers aren't given priority access to school choice; they attend their in-bound or lottery result.

I would 100% support teachers (and admin) getting preference for their kids to attend the school where they teach/work.  For one thing, during a pandemic, any policy that makes it more manageable for a teacher to return in person should be on the table.  Even outside of pandemic considerations, having staff send their kids to their own school shows a commitment to the education offered at that school.  Of course, it might mean teachers try to flock to schools with higher test scores.  Whatever, even so, I'm for it.[/quote]
