[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am zoned for Caesar Chavez and sadly, I think I might have to move. Chavez is underenrolled and I am not sure if I could successfully petition for an OB school when my local really needs kids.

I too love my little house and there are younger families moving to the neighborhood but I don't think the change will happen fast enough. The cost of Friends Community School is daunting and the catholic schools really don't appeal to me.

Has anyone been successful with OB applications when you are zoned for underenrolled schools? I applied and was admitted to a great private school but the 30K tuition without FA is not an option. [/quote]

$30k tuition?  Most of the private schools in the area run approx. $15k - $17k a year, including Friends..  [/quote]

Yes, the privates close in to the Cesar Chavez zoning are less than 30k, but many of the privates in DC or MoCo, not so much. GDS, Sandy Springs Friends, Holton, NCS/STA, Landon, Sidwell, Green Acres, CHDS, Lowell... We live in PG, not zoned for Chavez but we're clearly not far from where PP lives. Our DC goes to one of the privates I listed and we know kids in our neighborhood (loosely defined - PG towns nearish to the University of Maryland) at all of these schools. Pretty sure all of them are over 30K a year.  [/quote]
