[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friends kid went there and they weren't happy and left.  My understanding is that the administration focuses a lot on prospective parent and ignores real needs of current parents.  Their SN program is terrible, and administration doesn't do anything when a teacher is singling out and not helping a student.

All of that is 2nd hand, so take it for what it is worth.[/quote]

I've heard a lot about Langley, toured several times and talked to several parents, we ultimately sent our kids elsewhere because of the specific focus of the school they got into, however, I have NEVER heard anything like this.  It's been obvious to me that what goes on in the early years classrooms is impressive -- in fact more so than several of the highly regarded charter schools we considered.  I know less about the higher grades though and I know that there have been some challenges for Principal Spann.

My guess is that this is very old information and assumptions on the part of PP.[/quote]

I have never heard this either.  If they are focusing a lot on prospective parents, I certainly hadn't noticed!  I am a prospective parent and I don't think they've done any more than any other school to reach out to me.  I love that the principal tables at the farmers' market, but I'm pretty sure that is a new thing this year.[/quote]
