[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know if SWW prioritizes DCPS students over ones applying from privates?[/quote]

No preference.[/quote]

That stinks. They should prioritize kids coming out of the dcps system over those that are opting in now. [/quote]

That I am dead against! Already a very coveted school with very little spots and we are giving them to kids from private schools? BS. [/quote]

Some families didn't strike gold in the lottery and went private vs moving. These are not the Upper NW apartment renters but long time home owners. Are their tax dollars being refunded? What do you have to say to them?

Public school children should be favored for a public magnet school. And regarding your tax refund, new flash! the money doesn't just go to schools and even if it did, what a ridiculous thought. Just because you're too afraid to send your precious spawn to public school like the rest of us doesn't mean you, who clearly has money as a long-time homeowner should be considered equally in a PUBLIC school magnet program. Stay in private school![/quote]

Any DC resident is eligible for services, schools, etc. in DC -- whether they choose to use them or not.

Yes, schools — but not necessarily any school you want. There are boundary rules, feeder rights, sibling preferences, etc.

It would be perfectly rational for DCPS to give graduates of DCPS middle schools a preference for DCPS application high schools.

Need a comparison? Look at taxpayer-funded DC charters that cover grades 5-12. They certainly prioritize their own middle school kids, giving them [i]guaranteed[/i] access to the high school grades.
