[quote=Anonymous]to attend sws, everyone there essentially had to list it as their #1 and then also have a great lottery number (or have a sibling). the same is also true at some of the smaller charter schools (middle school at latin). this type of dynamic tends to create a small, closeknit community that is overall very happy and dedicated to being there. but the dark side comes when the same individuals also feel some need to justify their decision to chose sws as #1 in the lottery over other options (for example, to drive everyday to sws instead of attending the walkable in-bound school down the street). this creates a self-perpetuating fiction that its somehow necessarily better than the other dcps hill area elementary schools as opposed to largely just being more popular.
