[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think having a principal who does/cares about outreach is a good first step. Offering music, foreign language, extracurriculars/sports and especially an enrichment program matter too. But honestly what seems to be working is that there is a school that a) has room for lots more in-bounds kids b) is a destination school for elementaries that have a growing in-bound percentage c) has a boundary with a very high-income and highly-educated population and the families can no longer get into Deal out of bounds [/quote] To attract IB families, Hardy also has to address its athletic facilities issues, particularly fields. I was walking by there this weekend. Most of the school yard seems to have been given over to a parking lot that is used for flea markets. The playing field, if you can call it that, is a kind of "mini-me" embarrassing imitation that is 25-30% the size of a regulation soccer field.[/quote]
