[quote=Anonymous]+1. Yea, but both neighborhood middle schools are simply too high a mountain to climb for most of the uber-educated parents around here. They tend to throw their hands in the air after one look. It seems that Two Rivers ES has become somewhat less middle-class in the last two or three years, with more high SES families pulling out younger. They don't differentiate much at all, leading to advanced learners as young as 4 being bored silly and remaining that way despite parents complaints. More IB Brent and Maury families are avoiding the Two Rivers lottery, or returning to their neighborhood schools after trying the charter for a year or two, believing that advanced learners will be better off "at home." It's a shame that we-don't-celebrate-holidays Two Rivers won't adapt to changing times - we couldn't have enough middle-class friendly Hill schools. [/quote]
