[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are so many people applying....many schools have mentioned it’s a record year.  We are hoping for at least one option.[/quote]

My MIL was an admissions director. She said they somehow tell people that every year, and she was in admissions for 20+ years.[/quote]

Also, it appears with lower birth rate and rising private school cost if you were people are sending children to private. I’m afraid specifically to children born 2017+.[/quote]

OK let me correct those typos 👆. I’m getting used to the voice dictation update on iPhone.

Also, it appears with lower birth rate and rising private school costs fewer people are sending children to private. I’m referring specifically to children born 2017 plus.[/quote]

Except that the article clearly explains that average private school enrollment is up. And that this is fueled, in part, by greater numbers of k-3 students despite the lower birth rates. [/quote]

Yeah, kind of an anomaly. In addition to lower birth rates, DC is losing a great deal of its youngest kids due to remote working, inflated housing prices, fewer international students, high crime and the appeal of the now-gentrifying suburbs.  It will be interesting to see what happens with the now 2 year olds in DC in the near future and especially during their future application entry years.
