The only thing you are guaranteed is that your child can attend a public school in DC.

Now - let's do a reality check. During the last redistricting, there was not the will power to cut-off Crestwood and 16th St Heights from Deal.
Realistically, the 1st school that MAY be pulled as a Deal Feeder would be Bancroft. Why? Spanish immersion elementary should feed Spanish immersion middle school. Also - that part of DC does not have the same political power as Shepard.

I can not see a situation where Lafayette changes middle schools feeder pattern and Shepard does not. The Mayor wants to get re-elected. Reminder - Crestwood was not Grandfathered under the previous Mayor - but current one stepped in and over-rode that decision.

Crest wood doesn’t feed to Deal - what are you talking about?

Crestwood neighborhood does have rights to Deal. Put an address in this tool: https://enrolldcps.dc.gov/node/41
A sample address to prove this is 1301 Kennedy St NW
