For those of us whose kids got their THIRD choice, I find your post a bit irritating. But I get it. Does anyone know who they prioritize requests in Round 2?


It's worth a try. I know a few kids who got in second round.

I wouldn’t hold out much hope for round 2. I don’t know anybody who has gotten in, in round 2. Doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen , but, I wouldn’t count on it.

There are a few hundred spots for the entire county. Most kids are shut out.


Am I having a stroke? The topic of this thread is DCC lottery, which is about which high school kids in the DCC attend, depending on a preference form we submitted months ago.


There is no criteria and based off preference except a few magnet or other programs that have very limited spots. You are not guaranteed your preference.

Oh I apologize. I am referring to the middle school criteria based lottery for Takoma Park and Eastern.

Wait, what? We are talking about HS programs, so no kids are identified. They apply. Are you maybe mistaking this for a MS thread?

Spaces can open up when students assigned to the first choice school are invited to magnet/application programs.
