[quote=Anonymous]I hope that you're right. My spouse and I came in ready to push to make LT a better place a year ago, at the start of PreS3, but already feel burned out. With most of our child's middle-class classmates hitting the road, it seems prudent to do the same. LT just doesn't have the feel of a neighborhood school. I sympathize with those wondering if it might be best to reinvent it somehow to draw in, and keep, a lot more IB families. A montessori or even charter with proximity preference (seems like this will soon become reality, with support from Gray and the city council for this change to the charter law) might work really well. The strange principal and PTA were only half the story for us - LT didn't feel like fertile ground for a child like mine, who is shy and can already read a little. There were some pretty rough OOB kids, even in preschool. One of her IB classmates, age 3, was punched so hard in the face that he developed a tooth abscess. [/quote]
