[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having come away with a poor lottery draw, I would recommend spending more time researching "safety" schools. I spent a lot of time going to open houses of the most sought-after charter schools, and spent less time researching schools that were less popular but traditionally have more slots available. In retrospect, I think I could have spent more time visiting those schools to get a sense of each of them individually and done more online research for the schools that everyone seems to vie for but have very low odds of getting in to. [/quote] The more I've been thinking about it, the more that safety school = bottom ranked school. Anything that is "safe" generally is at the absolute bottom of performance. (Tier 3 charters, bottom ranked DCPS). [/quote]
