[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 [b]c) has a boundary with a very high-income and highly-educated population[/b] and the families can no longer get into Deal out of bounds [/quote] +1 to all of the above. But especially the part in bold, which is the real story. This was Deal some many years ago, Janney, Murch, Lafeyette, all of those schools too. Eventually all of the well-educated IB families want it, and there is no more room for OOB. Unfortunately this does not describe any of the MS boundary areas east of the park. [/quote]
