[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Send Bancroft and oyster to MacFarland and there will be a bigger cohort on grade level. [/quote]

No, they’ll just do what the Marie Reed, Powell, and Bruce Monroe do. Lottery, private, move. You don’t solve the collective action problem by rezoning when there’s as many alternatives available as there are in DC.[/quote]

But we are limted in options if we want to keep spanish. Macfarland is pretty much it.  I have tried to lottery for 7 years now (starting in PK3) and never got into a bilingual charter ever. Now for 5th grade most have 2 or less spots available. People need to stop assumng that lottery solves problems.  
We are looking at a bilingual private in DC, tuition is  42k/year.[/quote]

WTH? Mundo is clearing its waitlists, go there.[/quote]

So did Stokes I believe. PP isn’t being genuine, to say the least. And not everyone prioritizes continuing immersion past elementary like PP. I think the fact that Bancroft families pretty much exclusively choose Deal over MacFarland/CHEC prove that point. This was a good year for Latin’s second campus and you still have a good shot at Basis. The point is that families have many options, even if not every single one is desirable for every family.
