[quote=Anonymous]It seems to me that there are a lot more haters of Lafayette that like to pile on.  Open communication is good and considering some of the cuckoo stuff others put on here the complaints about Lafayette parents seem to be just affectations.  If anyone has the vapors it is not Lafayette parents...

The school has expanded in size enormously and most of the parents don't have any idea what is actually going on anymore.  Classes are switched up every year, so connections to other parents are down, the PTA, has developed over the years to be insular (not on purpose) and school policiesbhave been I mplemented o keep the busybodies.   When everything is taken together the feeling of disconnect gets amplified.  A small group does all the work and feels resentful/unappreciated.  The large group doesn't know what's going on and feels kept in the dark.  The natural reaction is to look for outlets for nformation.  Everything will be fine, the structure just needs to adapt to the new reality.of a 1000 school and there are going to be growing pains along the way.

As for this topic, c'mon people adding an extra K class at the last minute in August was going to cause some problems.  A little.consideration of both the legitimacy of the gripes and the adminstrative difficulty of pulling it off goes a long way.  [/quote]
