[quote=Anonymous]The advantage of everyone sticking together is to pool resources and improve the school making things better for all involved. If everyone works in their own self-interest, Elliot Hine is likely to remain the same under-enrolled, under-performing school it has been for a while. If children on the hill who are well-prepared for middle school thanks to their highly performing elementary schools decide as a group to attend Elliot Hine, there will be a bigger cohort of high performing students. The larger mass of students peforming at or above grade level will allow the school to offer more advanced offerings at earlier grades. The existing population that already chooses Elliot Hine would not be displaced as the school is currently well below capacity. Additionally, they would also have more opportunites and a stronger academic peer group which, according to existing research would help their education outcomes..[/quote]
