[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am IB and was considering Bunker Hill for the fall for PK3. There were about 6-7 parents on the Brookland Kids listserv who expressed interest before the lottery. When I wrote after results came out, not a single other person was sending their kid there, which was pretty discouraging to us. To be honest, if it were w/in walking distance to our house, we liked the PK3 teacher, etc. enough to try it, but without knowing a single IB person who remained interested after the lottery and having to add a drive to drop off our child, we decided it against it too. Have hopes for it to become a great neighborhood school, but I do think it is difficult to gain momentum without a group of IB parents deciding it's time to enroll their kids and to work toward improvement.[/quote]

Brookland parents have been making pinky promises for years - swearing that they are ALL going to enroll in both Burroughs and Bunker Hill! After the lottery, those fingers point in other directions. LOL! Perhaps with the new lottery and less chances of real movement in charters and publics, those schools will see a boost in enrollment. [/quote]
