[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are the bigger issues at Lux?[/quote] A brief list: Next 2-3 years will be disrupted due to reconstruction, so kids will be in holding school. Classes are overcrowded. 25+ kids/class. Teachers tell me that they are extremely stressed by number of short-term ESOL students. Lots of international students attend Lux for 1-3 years. Great for diversity, but takes up a huge amount of teachers' time, especially since student turnover is so frequent. PTA support modest at best, despite best efforts of some parents. Neighborhood is changing dramatically. Older homes in Luxmanor being torn down and replaced with $2MM+ homes. Newcomers don't see eye-to-eye with many of the other residents (and vice-versa). This is starting to be reflected in the school. [/quote]
