[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can't get into a better feeder thru the lottery at this point. If I were you, I would stay at EH, supplement, do CTY, help my kid get stellar grades in 7th, and apply to the application schools for High School. Don't despair! If you don't get into any in 9th, then seriously consider moving at that point.[/quote] Disagree. Moving in high school is very disruptive. I would move now into good 6-12 pyramid in the burbs. Not only will your kid have a much better middle school experience, you won’t have to supplement or drive your kid to school. BTW the odds of getting into a good application high school is low and you seriously cannot count on it. So you waste 3 years of middle school for nothing.[/quote] Agree with this. Move OP — either to upper NW if you are comfortable with those schools and can afford it or to the ‘burbs.[/quote]
