Real estate prices. Fewer young Federal worker type families can afford 3-bedroom houses downtown with each passing year.


I think it's also that DCPS schools are becoming more attractive... so while HRCS waitlists may be going down, a lot of DCPS neighborhood schools' waitlists seem to be getting longer...

Every year some of the less desirable schools improve a bit too. More people holding out for top choices. less settling for meh schools and meh commutes.

I think it's a combination of people putting LAMB on their common lottery lists (sometimes/often using 2 slots for it) and the additional seats at MV8 actually cascading through the system in a meaningful way.

LAMB actually offered a meaningful number of PK4 and K seats.

It seems like all the waitlists are much shorter. LAMB effect or less kids in DC this year?

Seems like CMI has, again, a shorter waitlist than it did the prior year.

Montessori waitlists are way shorter with LAMB entering the MSDC lottery. I mean SSMA has 1 kid on their PK3 list.
