[quote=Anonymous]I think the DCI will get off to a very rocky start, as the number of students from feeder elementaries is very low. There is a "herd" mentatlity, in that families want to know their student will be in a MS with other strong and prepared students. Given the choice between a brand new DCI with at least 1/3 random lottery entrants, and Latin, Deal, Basis, I think many students will begin entering those other schools, starting with YY 5th graders (there were only 32 4th this year). Fewer remain, more leave. EL Hayes and Cap City and Washington Latin examples show it take about 6 yrs, then maybe folks stay. [/quote]
