[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yikes -- there are some BITTER Ludlow-Taylor folks! [/quote] That was my feeling too. Seems like the sent the three wicked witches of the West. Too bad it was acoustically difficult to understand what they were rambling on about, but one even dropped the word "gerrymandering" somehow into her tirade. Maybe somebody else can elaborate how that fit into the discussion. I understand their frustration somehow. They worked hard to make LT better and they are succeeding. But their success shouldn't be based on SWS not giving proximity preference to the neighbors. I think their success should come from parents wanting to have their kids go to LT for the long-haul because it is on par with some of the best schools in the city. Their goal should be to be the #1 choice for parents in the neighborhood and have a clear strategy/timeline how to get their. Getting rid of the competition has never really helped anyone to improve.[/quote] This. That was not much of a welcome mat they put out there for the SWS neighbors. The ones who live across the street were probably never likely to go to Ludlow, but you have to wonder how anyone who was in the room last night wants to go to school with people who behave that way. I do feel badly for them, I'm sure it's tough being a Ludlow parent, but they really should be spending their time working to make the school more attractive and not wasting their time being so nasty.
