I know many families happy at Truesdell. I’d consider it.

West will also be adding a 3rd PK3 class next year, so that may help. Good luck!

Just go to your IB school for PK3/4.

also consider the data at http://enrolldcps.dc.gov/node/61 though:

Bancroft matched 0 OOB and waitlisted 135
Barnard matched 0 OOB and waitlisted 62
Powell matched 0 OOB and waitlisted 124
West matched 0 OOB and waitlisted 42

So West looks like your best odds, especially with the renovation next year. But even there, they waitlisted 13 IB kids and 9 with sibling preference, and more families with preference could have joined the waitlist after the lottery. The odds they get through all those 22+ people and you are high enough in the no-preference waitlist to get an offer is quite small.

Barnard PS 23 seats, 138 waitlist, 8 later offers
West PS 28 seats, 64 waitlist, 13 later offers

I think out of boundary breakouts are out there too. But it looks like Barnard and West are in the realm of unlikely but Powell and Bancroft are in the realm of "dream on."

Sorry I switch Bancroft and Barnard in the above. Again, the tableau table has the data.

Thank you!! This is just the info I was looking for!

West is at a different location next year during renovations, so that might help you a little.

If you have fewer than 12 schools on your list already there's no harm in adding these. But your odds are slim.

I meant not a good chance at any of them.

Are they currently on the wait list at these schools? I would call each school and ask.

OP here. No, just trying to figure out if it's worth listing them in the lottery. Thanks!

Not at Bancroft. Don't know about the rest.

Does my OOB Pre-K 3 kid have any chance at getting off the waitlist at Powell, Bancroft (English dominant), Barnard, or West?
