[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Regarding OOB children at Brent: with the possible exception of 5th grade, most of the children who were admitted OOB still live on or near Capitol Hill. It's a neighborhood school. In the early childhood classes,[quote] the OOB children got in by cheating on the lottery.[/quote] [/quote] How does one "cheat" a lottery? Does the technique apply to Megamillions? Inquiring minds want to know.[/quote] We live in Ward 8 and our second-grader attends Brent. I'm not sure how we could possibly cheat the lottery, we picked our schools, and got lucky. My son was in the single digits on both Brent and Two Rivers waitlist, only difference was the Brent had movement on its list, and TR did not. We would have had many restless nights had we had to send him to Turner ES which is across the street from our home. Shiny new building, but after speaking with a few of the staff members on Beautification Day, my suspicions were confirmed, chaotic is an understatement. [/quote]
