[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"I want her to have friends in the neighborhood and I want her to be close to home" Shepherd is only 53% in-boundary. I guess she'll have a few friends in the neighborhood. [/quote] The school has been trending upward in IB % for several years. I had a kid in Shepherd PK3 ~5 years ago, and even then it was all IB. Back then, the overall school was only something like 32% IB.[/quote] +1. SH/CV is a relatively small geographical area. 190 neighborhood kids attending the school is still a lot. Shepherd is still very much has a neighborhood feel. OOB families contribute to the community and are part of what makes the school pretty great IMO. It will likely be 70% in 2 years as it has been increasing almost 10% every year. Shepherd will likely always have a large chunk of OOB. There are quite a Jewish families that opt to attend Shepherd and then move to Milton in later years which opens up their spots in the lottery. [/quote]
