[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good question. I’m in that triangle you referred to where everyone thinks we might be rezoned to Drew. However, I don’t think that alone is enough - there are still plenty of rental properties that seem somewhat transient.

Apparently the consensus is that Drew will be an entirely new school once the boundary change happens (new principal, lots of new staff, etc) so we shouldn’t focus on the current scores. At least that’s what a few of us have been told on this thread and others when we expressed concern over the stark contrast between current Henry/will-be Fleet and current Drew. I get the distinct feeling we’re not entitled to pitch a fit because we’re in S. Arlington and should have known better.[/quote]

Thanks for the response. It's a little disheartening to hear you've been told that/talked down to. Would you mind telling me who told you that? Five new principals in a row haven't changed Drew's graded program, and no other factor influences a school so much as it the socioeconomic status of it's students.[/quote]
