[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are moving back to the area, and need to put our kids in the DCPS lottery. Kids are rising 3rd and 5th graders, and our zoned school pyramid isn't stellar. I haven't participated in the lottery since the kids were entering Pre-K. What schools have the best chance at entry in these later grades that have a decent MS-HS feeder pattern? Thanks in advance for any guidance, suggestions, and personal anecdotes.[/quote] If you give us your neighborhood, we could even come up with a draft list for you! Sounds fun. My kids are set and I'm not playing the lottery this year. Last year, I had a rising 2nd and 5th and they each got two options off the lottery. The older pulled the younger one into an option, but the younger did not pull the older one in when he got in (to a Hardy feeder). Schools differ on this policy. ITS is a decent backup, I think. They pull in a lot of kids off of their wait-list in September.[/quote]
