[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's being triggered because some parents see the word "science" in the name and think it's more of a thing than it really is and get pissed off because they don't have it as a choice school. 1 hour more science per week doesn't really seem like a big deal to me. [b] Change the name of the school,[/b] make it a neighborhood school and be done with the whole thing. frankly, the people who don't have access to immersion because Claremont is effectively a neighborhood school should be more pissed than people who want an extra hour of science. [/quote] This. It's the name that's the problem. A PP mentioned that some people there think it's super-special and others think it's just a neighborhood school with some extra science. I'd guess the super-special people are also those who are very invested in the brand name and it making them/their kids look like they are super-special too.[/quote]
