[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tons of young families are moving into our safe and quiet EOTP neighborhood, and now send their kids to our IB, Shepherd.  In fact, there was a double-digit waitlist of IB kids for the two PK3 classes this year.  IB and OOB families (including many from Petworth) seem to coexist peacefully; there's not a big divide like there seems to be at some other schools.  There's a great community feel overall within the school.

The schools and neighborhoods are not all the Wild West EOTP. ;)[/quote]

No one denies that there are waitlists for most of the NW schools EOTP for the preK programs.  There are, however, no waitlists for K and beyond. Because everyone leaves then.  Several years of heavy waitlists at all these schools in PK have not translated in any interest in staying for K in any of these schools.  Sorry that you are still in the "my kids are 1 and 3 and i totally plan to stay here forever, even if i don't get into a charter school" phase.  [/quote]

You're years out of date. Did you move to VA or WOTP 5 years ago?

Everyone doesn't leave for K and up. Not even all the higher SES parents, which is who I assume you are talking about.  Did you miss the folks chiming in with kids in elementary grades?  Get with the times.[/quote]
