[quote=Anonymous]Excellent idea moving to the suburbs then. I HATE this sort of thinking. The Maury families I'd most like to see stay for ms, with the most able students, are the ones most likely to be encouraged to leave. Hello, you can have diversity and strong academics, suburban style with honors classes, test-in programs, whatever. You don't have to insist on forms of diversity (read mostly low-income kids from other neighborhoods and a few others) that drive out most of your highest-achieving families, helping explain why SH and EH aren't good schools. I can't see a neighborhood MS program acceptable to most high-SES families on the horizon, even for the current preschool and prek Maury kids. It's too late, distant charters have already won, whatever their shortcomings. [/quote]
