[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]false. the current 5th grade entry year disproportionally does not attract higher needs students who for a variety of reasons tend to stay at their established elementary school for 5th and then lottery for 6th. its part of why the 5th grade at risk seats at basis and latin were not super popular.[/quote] +1. On top of that, the claim that higher needs kids MUST enter BASIS earlier than 6th and therefore in 5th is very much mitigated by BASIS having seats starting in K. At some point, the handful of high needs students who would now enter in 6th vs 5th get outweighed by the good of the entire system (there would be substantially less churn in a large number of non-JR-zoned ESes if the MS entry years between DCPS and charters lined up; that churn is bad for all students).[/quote]
