[quote=Anonymous]To add on to the previous comment: yes, schools know when their current students ENROLL elsewhere (by name). They also know ANONYMOUSLY how many current students have applied out in the lottery. This is to help them plan for how many seats they will offer in the lottery (if they know that 10 fourth graders have applied out in the lottery, they might choose to offer 10 more seats in the lottery, for example). Of course, you might inadvertently tell them that you've applied out, depending on how you respond to their "intent to return" poll in the spring (which is non-binding). But you will not lose your seat at your current charter school just by throwing your hat in the lottery. You will lose it if you (1) enroll somewhere else or (2) do not provide proof of residency (and a signed DCRV form) to the school by the deadline.[/quote]
