[quote=Anonymous]15:12  I heard about the Lexington Place push and I saw the e-mails and read them first-hand.  Of course, Tommy didn't support that, and I wouldn't have supported it either.  It was stemming from a very narrow self-interest that was not well-founded and didn't represent any type of sincere effort to give LT a chance.  It was a very micro level argument, if you will.

I think Tommy, Kaya, DM for Education, etc would find it quite reasonable to shutter LT for macro reasons - such as too many schools and IB community unfortunately is not interested in buying into the school putting the effort in like Brent, Maury, Tyler SI parents have (as evidenced by the school's inability to hold onto parents after pre-k).

I think LT should be closed.  I don't think it should be closed and then re-opened just for the sake of clearing out OOB families.  I'm not as clear on my feelings about whether SWS should be allowed to move there.  SWS doesn't want to move somewhere that it's not wanted, and SWS doesn't want to have to deal with a 'legacy' population.  However, SWS does really want to stay on the Hill.
