[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Quick glance as a ward 4 parent; Takoma and Whittier not offering one spot so far for PK3 is remarkable. [/quote]

Shepherd hasn't offered one waitlist spot in any grade.[/quote]

Shepherd feeds to Deal and JR.  Not the same as Whittier and Takoma.  It is pretty remarkable those two schools didn’t offer a waitlist spot to any PK3 yet.  [/quote]

Not really.  Lots of families these days use ECE spots at their IB or any other schools.  The real differentiator is upper elementary and percentages of IB families that stay thru upper elementary thru 4th.[/quote]

Ward 3 families need to stop saying this. We're an upper elementary family leaving our EOTP IB this year ONLY because of the middle school feed. I would LOVE if DCs could stay through fifth at our elementary, but when lottery gold strikes, you have to take it. I'm really sad to leave our school and DCs will be devastated when they find out, but the reality is that there are many nice elementary schools in this city that feed into very less nice middle and high schools, and middle class families that can't afford private have to play the lottery and take the opportunity when it comes.

You are leaving just as Pp said.[/quote]
