[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not a current Payne family, but we have several neighbors with younger kids who are very involved in the school. There are many more IB kids in the lowest grades, and there is certainly a push for them to stay. I would talk to the PTA folks before rejecting the school out of hand.[/quote] You know, in-boundary parents have been saying this for a good five years now. The newly constituted 2011-2013 PTA, parents of around 15 high SES kids in PreK3, knocked itself out until a bunch of previously uninvolved teachers turned up at an election meeting 18 months in and voted out the whole (racially diverse) gentrifier leadership. The principal did nothing. Not one of PreK3 kids made it even to K. Now a new group of in-boundary early childhood parents is plugging away to improve this failing school. It's a Sisyphian task of course. Unless you're only planing on using Payne for PreK3, PreK4 and maybe K, good luck to you. [/quote]
