[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't really understand why, if so many parents are so unhappy with the school, that they don't demand that the administration fix whatever the problems are.  Or leave.  Why is retention so high?[/quote]

Ha!  They DID demand that the administration fix the problems.  Half of the parents in the school signed a petition, attended meetings, screamed at the top of their lungs.  The administration completely ignored them.  On leaving that is harder.  Most people just cannot pick and leave.  Even if they did, they hoped that their concerns would be addressed, and when it was clear that the administration had zero interest in doing so, the first round of the lottery was over.[/quote]

But these problems are longstanding, aren't they?  And lots of these people have decent IB options, I can tell by the charter attendance maps.

If there are so many parents that are so unsatisfied, they should be able to force some improvements.  Or maybe they aren't actually that unhappy with it, but just want to keep others out.[/quote]
