How can you not know anyone in your neighborhood who goes to your IB school? I think it's great that you are trying to find info about L-T. If you don't end up sending your kids there, at the very least, try to be engaged in your neighborhood school regardless. I imagine your kids will be living near those who will attend L-T.  There have been feedback on this thread listing pros and cons and from current parents and I hope they have been helpful. Maybe you should chat with the principal about some of the cocncerns you've heard from several years ago. No one who sends their kids to LT thinks it's perfect but at least those whose posted are happy regardless.[/quote][/quote]

It is easy. I am an older parent, as I have mentioned, who heard some horror stories a few years back, and have put my energies elsewhere. Besides that, I work a lot and there are plenty of neighbors I do not know. Why do you care? Trying to figure out who I am for your hitlist? Grow up, and let there be healthy dialogue. [/quote]

The tone in your response is completely unnecessary.  PP was trying to be helpful and did so in a respectful way unlike the other poster or posters above.  Why the attitude?  Completely misdirected.[/quote]

Yikes.  Sorry, really. I didn't mean to have an attitude or put on anyone on a "hitlist" (to do what, I'm not exactly sure).  Amazing what gets lost online.  You sound like such an engaged parent and very concerned about culture, environment, etc., I just assumed you would be the same as a neighbor, super active, knows everyone, etc.  But you're right, we do prioritize what to put our energies into.

In any event, I hope you found this thread helpful.  Maybe I will take my own advice and ask Ms. Cobbs about the horror stories you've heard, which I really had never heard about it before I put my child in L-T.  But at the very least, I'll know how to respond when someone brings it up again.

Good luck.  [/quote]
