[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's grueling and I sympathize with you OP, having been through it several times.

But you know what is more grueling?  Applying to private school in this city. 
It's a long, painful, expensive process with even worse odds than the public lottery. 
Plenty of top kids don't get in anywhere. 
We're in year two of trying to leave DCPS (have had a great experience but now have an older kid who now wants to apply/attend elsewhere). 
Results are out Friday and I fully expect not to get in anywhere again (despite having an excellent application).

The school situation in this city is not easy.    :?

Not OP, but forgive me if I don't feel that sorry for you. You can afford private. [/quote]

DP, we also moved from DCPS to private, but I agree that it's sort of tone deaf for PP to give her sob story here in the DC public schools forum, state that it's "more grueling than what everyone here is experiencing, and expect folks to feel sorry for her.[/quote]
