[quote=Anonymous]The fact is, there are hardly ANY high-SES kids at Hine and Maury can talk a good game all they want but when those kids get to 6th, where are they going to go? They'll play the lottery -they'll try to charter or get into SH, they'll even commute to Hardy. They won't send those kids over there to be a 2% crowd unless something drastic is changed. Test-in, etc. They're going to follow the handful-and-growing high SES kids over to SH before they go to Hine, and then their sibs will follow. This comment about "following a friend or two" is huge. It's a very different dynamic in a large-boundary middle school to "turn it around" than a tight-boundary ES so I'm tired of the Brent boosters saying "you gotta do the work" -- where is your middle-schooler Brent parent that lives in Hine boundaries? Ohhhh, right, Latin. [/quote]
