[quote=Anonymous]Totally agree, although would argue that it isn't about the "underpreparedness" (in fact many of the kids that come in after pK do very well, in my experience) but rather this is symptomatic of the feeling in the city as a whole that "the grass is always greener", which leads to a lot of churning and a lack of commitment. One of the ways schools improve is through committed parents who are planning to stay for many years (and thus have reasons to invest in the school) and the lottery and feeling that "oh, any year my kid might get into X school and we will move" doesn't help the schools that are trying to improve. Okay, soapbox over.[/quote]
