[quote=Anonymous]Do you know if the school administration is responsive to parent involvement? At Title I schools sometimes the bureaucracy can be very entrenched, and a hostile principal can cut off parent efforts at the knees. Gentrification creates a lot of sensitive situations-- maybe more than you realize-- and they can play out within a school in ways that are hard to see if you don't know what you are looking for. I would suggest you ask around for other parents' experiences trying to improve the school. There have probably been others who tried before you came along. You might learn a lot.[/quote]
