[quote=Anonymous]Things that have been lucky for our family with DC public schools, charters, lottery: 1. Had first kid in 2004 2. Didn’t get into first choice school in 2007, but got into 2nd choice. They were probably equally desirable at the time, but 2nd choice became amazing and all three kids went there through 4th. 3. Had to start younger kids (twins)at IB not super desirable school (it is now good); it was a good experience. Half way through year, they got into great school older kid went to. 4. Oldest child got into Latin in 6 years ago when about 50% of non-sibs got in, I don’t know what is generalizable from our experience - don’t be afraid to try IB school with iffy reputation (?). Don’t worry if you don’t get into your first choice school.[/quote]
