[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d pick Whittier or West over Truesdell, personally. Agree with PP that they both have more “momentum.” I think West has nicer facilities than Whittier—it was renovated recently, right?—but ultimately I’d pick whichever was closer to my house because I doubt the differences between the two are that significant.[/quote] I wonder why Truesdell still isn’t getting more “neighborhood buy-in” (from the gentrifier set, that is - it’s got plenty of buy-in from the local Latino community). We attended for two years of PK a few years ago (OOB), and my kid was the only non-Hispanic white kid in the class. The principal seemed great and had a stellar reputation, even on this board. The PK teachers were great. We didn’t stay because we eventually moved on to our IB, but I am surprised that the school doesn’t seem to change along with the neighborhood like others are.[/quote]
