[quote=Anonymous]Don't forget about the imminent Drew fiasco. People don't realize how much having the Montessori program, even though a lot of those kids are low income, helped the SOL scores. As someone said upthread, Drew is absolutely going to be a failing school unless they redraw the boundaries--most of the regular program kids there are low income and many are renters that churn in and out of the school each year--even if they put some kind of fantastic program in there on day one (raising the question of why they don't have such a program at the other south Arlington schools.....) there are going to be a couple of rough years there. But which neighborhood is going to be want to be moved TO Drew? People from the south side of the Henry boundary or the north side of Oakridge aren't going to want to. Pulling kids from Randolph or Abingdon doesn't help the demographics at either school. [/quote]
