St. Paul district considers school-choice review

School-choice lottery season ended in St. Paul recently with hundreds of families still on the outside looking in at a familiar list of high-demand schools.

At Washington Technology Magnet School, a grades 6-12 building on the North End, the waiting list stood at 262 students.

Eighty-nine kids await openings at St. Anthony Park Elementary, while at two Montessori elementary schools, Nokomis on the East Side and J.J. Hill in the Summit-University area, the lists stood at 111 and 107, respectively.
