[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At what grade to families start to leave these schools at? Seems like everyone wants early childhood seats at these schools but not so much the upper elementary grades. [/quote] Depends on the school but also on the other options. Many people are satisfied with their elementary but move when they get an offer for a school with a good middle school feeder. Proximity to a lot of good-enough charters or desirable neighborhood schools can affect it-- schools in Ward 5 really struggle with this. Sometimes people leave because they want to buy a home but can't afford to do so without moving farther out. It's unfortunate, because a lot of these schools really could thrive if DCPS would get its middle school act together. [/quote]
