[quote=Anonymous]You have to lottery every year. We got into DCI and Hardy feeders in early and mid elementary, and finally into a Deal feeder in upper elementary. If you list both MVs, Stokes, Hyde Addison, Key, and Mann at the bottom of your list every year, you’ll have some choices. Friends that waited until fifth and sixth grade to lottery ended up choosing a less desirable neighborhood middle school or going private then hoping for an application high school. Most grade level students can do just fine at a neighborhood middle school, but kids who need more acceleration will be bored to tears. My kid is high performing, so we supplement math and writing outside of school and hope Deal and JR/wherever’s accelerated paths will end up challenging enough.[/quote]
