[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Schools like MV that are DCI feeders often have higher retention than they deserve because people who live in areas with bad middle schools will stay just to have a DCI feeder. I think a lot of people don;t have problems with the school until 2nd grade or later and then they feel like they should stick it out for DCI.[/quote]

I'm curious to see how things change after DCI is no longer a guarantee.  I figure after sibling preference, chances of a non-sibling getting into DCI are really not that great after the expansion kicks in.  So there's a lot less reason to put up with MV, Stokes EE commute, etc.[/quote]

I honestly don't think there will be a sibling preference offered for 5th graders interested in going to DCI. [/quote]

Well they have been clear in saying there will be a sibling preference. [/quote]

Who is they? This is all academic at this point/[/quote]

DCI. [/quote]

It isn't up to them. It will be up to each feeder school to decide how to allocate its seats for DCI -- according to the PCSB.

In terms of sibling preference, it is up to dci. Feeders get x number of seats and the remaining spots get staff preference and sibling preference. [/quote]
