[quote=Anonymous]OP, check out this link to get a sense of the size of the wait lists at the schools being mentioned (hint: they are long) https://data.dcpcsb.org/Waitlists-Spaces-Available/Wait-List-SY15-16-as-of-March-27-2015/3ibf-jtff? Also, keep in mind that I think many people have a biased view of how easy it is to get in, because if you live here and lottery *every year*' it is true that your cumulative likelihood of getting into a good school by 2nd grade is fairly high. But the odds if just lotterying for 2nd grade are not particularly great. I live in the U street corridor and love it, but if I were in your shoes, I'd sublet the U street place and move in bounds for a good neighborhood school or go private. Or lottery for the charters and if you don't get in, then rent an apartment in bounds for a good school - if you are in bounds you can sign your older kid up after the lottery deadline.[/quote]
