[quote=Anonymous]Basically, ITS does well with academics through elementary. But tere is more attrition starting in 5th for the reasons already noted, so they let more kids in through the lottery. And some of those kids are not as well prepared academically, and may have issues of behavior that were not addressed at their prior school. And of course, the homegrown ITS kids are not perfect either and middle school is a trial for everyone already. So the middle school doesn't do as well academically or behaviorally, and that makes people want to leave. It is a cycle, in some ways baked into the model. It can be improved but never totally fixed. Recently, now that people are sticking with area elementaries longer, I have noticed more inflow from Seaton, Ludlow-Taylor, and Lee in upper elementary.[/quote]
