[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are in the Cluster and I would choose Stuart Hobson. LT buy-in seems real. I have heard of more Maury parents choosing elsewhere which isn't good for EH. I would also prefer the SH location in terms of safety. [/quote]

I don’t know anyone at Maury who lotteried for the Latins or BASIS, matched, and is choosing EH. [/quote]

Right, I assume if you lottery for a school and match, you would go bc you lotteried there. Our family didn't lottery, and others we know didn't lottery so we ended up at our feeder DCPS middle school. And I am not naive and know that some of the other families at their IB MS did try lottery but didn't get in, but I always assumed if somebody tried lottery and matched, the odds are they'd go wherever they felt was the right fit that they tried lotterying for.[/quote]

I know families at Maury that tried out the lottery, matched at Basis or Latin, and are undecided. I also know families that did not lottery because they are planning to go to E-H. I think test scores are of limited value because the school is changing and even two year old results may be outdated.  More relevant to many, I think, is admission to selective HSs.  The last year that is posted doesn't show much for E-H in that regard. But, I hear this has been a solid year for admissions.  [/quote]
