Bancroft, like Oyster, has no English-only track. If you move in-boundary for 3rd grade both schools have to take you and do whatever they can to get you up to speed, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Much as I'd love the kid to learn Spanish, throwing her into it seems a little cruel, yeah. I've thought about it.

Wait, What does SWS stand for? And where is it? And it's a charter? [/quote]

School-Within-School: It is an extremely popular DCPS that is city-wide and is Reggio-inspired. I think next year they may have a 3rd grade, but there is no chance you will get in given its popularity, unfortunately. There are no boundaries so you cannot move in boundary to get in.[/quote]

PP here: Yes, sorry--SWS is a newly-growing former early childhood school that is now adding grades up through 5th. It is fantastic but since it has no boundaries and the lottery is over, it would be nearly impossible to enter next year. The neighborhood around it is fantastic. Mostly zoned for Ludlow-Taylor (which many people love--might be worth a visit) and right between the heart of the Hill and H street. Lots to do and a little more affordable than the area around Brent.[/quote]
